climateR simplifies the steps needed to get climate data into R. At its core it provides three main things:

  1. A climate catalog of over 100,000k datasets from over 2,000 data providers/archives. See (climateR::params)
nrow(params)
#> [1] 107857
length(unique(params$id))
#> [1] 2075
length(unique(params$asset))
#> [1] 4653

  1. A general toolkit for accessing remote and local gridded data files bounded by space, time, and variable constraints (dap, dap_crop, read_dap_file)

  2. A set of shortcuts that implement these methods for a core set of selected catalog elements

Basic Usage

Rainfall from GridMet for Colorado

October 29,1991 - November 6, 1991

library(AOI)
library(terra)
library(climateR)

AOI = aoi_get(state = "CO", county = "all")
plot(AOI$geometry)

d = getGridMET(AOI,
               varname = "pr",
               startDate = "1991-10-29",
               endDate  = "1991-11-06")

plot(d$precipitation_amount)
