pingr dependency has been removed. The check if a sub-domain is alive is performed by a native R function.New functionality:
find_stations() returns a tibble with the nearest hydroscope’s stations’ distances using a given point coordinates.hydroscoper was transferred to rOpenSci: https://github.com/ropensci/hydroscoper
General
This is a major update. All the functions are rewritten utilizing the Enhydris API.
The included data in the package cover all Hydroscope’s databases.
Add vignettes “An introduction to hydroscoper” and “Using hydroscoper’s data”.
Add package documentation site.
All the functions return tibbles.
Add greece_borders dataset.
New functionality:
get_instruments() returns a tibble with the instruments’ data.get_water_basins() returns a tibble with the Water Basins’ data.get_water_divisions() returns a tibble with the Water Divisions’ data.get_political_divisions() returns a tibble with the Political Divisions’ data.get_variables() returns a tibble with the Variables’ data.get_units_of_measurement() returns a tibble with the Units’ data.get_time_steps() returns a tibble with the Time Steps’ data.get_owners() returns a tibble with the Owners’ data.get_instruments_type()returns a tibble with the Instruments’ type data.get_station_type() returns a tibble with the Water Basins data.get_database() returns a tibble with the Water Basins data.hydro_coords returns a tibble with the stations’ longitudes and latitudes using as input the variable point from get_stations function.hydro_translate() translates various Greek terms to English.Changes
get_stations and get_timeseries use the Enhydris API and are considerably faster.get_data uses lower case variable naming: date, value, comment
Defuncs
get_coords has been removed from the package. Please use hydro_coords to convert Hydroscope’s points’ raw format to a tibble.
