thanks for the issue @hsiehph - this probably isn't something we would include in rnoaa since it's not climate data, but we can see if anyone knows if it's already avail. in another R pkg.
@amoeba @mbjoseph @jsta @tphilippi anyone know if this NOAA Global Land One-km Base Elevation Project data is avail in any R pkgs already?
Hi Scott,
Thanks for the reply. I would appreciate if anyone can point me in the right direction. In addition, since you mentioned climate data, is there any data set that has monthly average skin temperature in a one-km base or similar resolution across the world? I basically have coordinates for locations of interest that I would like to get temperature and altitude data. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

skin temperature? can you explain what that means
oops.... I meant to say temperature. Autocompletion sneakily added skin into the sentence. sorry

one-km base or similar resolution across the world
I'm not familiar with the resolutions of the datasets available here, you could look at the different data sources avail. https://github.com/ropensci/rnoaa#data-sources-in-rnoaa and see what their resolutions are
@hsiehph for acquiring altitude data in R I would recommend the elevatr package: https://github.com/jhollist/elevatr
The elevatr package will pull data from a different source (either USGS or AWS terrain tiles depending on location), but it might solve your issue.
thanks @mbjoseph
Thanks, everyone for the suggestions. Sorry I was away for conferences in the past several days. I will try some of the packages mentioned and see how it goes.
Thanks!

Hello,
I apologize if I am not at the right place to ask the following question. I am interested in gathering altitude/ hypsography data for a set of geographic locations across the world. I found that the following project seems to have the data I look for, but neither am I sure how to use it nor I know how to apply rnoaa to it. I would be grateful if you can point me to the right tool/resource for me.
