Get Latest Radar Images #82

Closed deanmarchiori closed 6 years ago

deanmarchiori commented 6 years ago

We currently have get_satellite_imagery() which gets BOM Satellite GeoTIFF Imagery.

Do we think there is value in adding functionality to get radar imagery? It seems like a popular product and may assist users looking to include imagery into rmarkdown reports etc.

The images are all exposed to the FTP and can be brought in via raster so should be a low impact change.

If interested, let me know and I can submit a PR

Ooh! Ooh! (gg?)animated loop of recent radar observations (like the BOM page)... I'd love that!

Ooohhh, nice.

Yes, let's add this!
