meteospain
aims to offer access to different Spanish meteorological
stations data in an uniform way.
meteospain
is in CRAN, and can be installed as any other package:
install.packages('meteospain')
Also, meteospain
is in active development. You can install the
development version from GitHub with:
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("emf-creaf/meteospain")
The following meteorological stations services are available:
- AEMET, the Spanish State Meteorological Agency.
- MeteoCat, the Catalan Meteorology Service.
- MeteoGalicia, the Galician Meteorological Service.
- RIA, the Andalucian Agroclimatic Information Network.
- Meteoclimatic, the Spanish non-professional meteorological stations network.
Access to the services is done with the get_meteo_from
function,
providing the name of the service and the options. Each service has a
dedicated *service*_options()
function to guide through the specifics
of each service:
library(meteospain)
mg_options <- meteogalicia_options(resolution = 'current_day')
get_meteo_from('meteogalicia', mg_options)

function:

Returned objects are spatial objects (using the
sf
R package), so results can be

Some services, like AEMET or Meteocat, require an API key to access
the data. meteospain
doesn’t provide any key for those services,
see ?services_options
for information about this.
Once a key has been obtained, we can get the meteo:
get_meteo_from('aemet', aemet_options(api_key = keyring::key_get("aemet")))
