I think the global view of stations using oce
would be nice and options can be exposed for different coloring of stations by groups (e.g. by countries, by position/height, by years of consecutive data, by types of met data, by network, etc.).
Another nice implementation of mapping would be to show a map of the filtered stations when filtering the list of stations. Since that's likely to be zoomed in a bit, and perhaps have less stations overall, maybe a leaflet map might be good (with metadata bound to each of the stations).
I like the idea of gridded met fields. I suppose for that we could extract from already available global data (e.g. GDAS, reanalysis files, etc.) or develop those with something simple like CALMET.
I think the leaflet idea is good and pretty easy to implement with drilldown options I'd be interested in an indicator by stations that are closes to say a country or state capital city . Is there such a dataset anywhere out there already?
I made an Rpubs that shows how to do some basic mapping using facilities from the
oce
package (for which I am a co-author), found here:https://rpubs.com/clarkrichards/86727
@rich-iannone expressed an interest in including some mapping functionality in
stationaRy
, so this discussion is to narrow down what that would entail and how it would look. Some questions are:oce
,sp
, etc)?
