Changelog • climaemet

climaemet (development version)

Improvements in ggwindrose() (see #72):
- Use ggplot2::coord_radial() instead of ggplot2::coord_polar().
- New parameter stack_reverse for changing the order of the stacks on each petal.
Minimal ggplot2 version required is now >= 3.5.0 as a consequence of migrating to ggplot2::coord_radial().

CRAN release: 2025-03-25

aemet_forecast_fires() now uses terra::combineLevels() (terra >= 1.8-10).
Use CRAN DOI: 10.32614/CRAN.package.climaemet.
Now the API key with the highest remaining quota is selected when performing a call (in prior versions the API Key was chosen randomly). This is expected to delay API throttling.

CRAN release: 2024-08-28

New functions:
- aemet_alerts() to get current meteorological alerts issued by AEMET.
- Helper function aemet_alert_zones() to obtain the zoning defined by AEMET for the alerts.
- aemet_forecast_fires() to get a SpatRaster with the forecast of risk level of wildfires.
Increase timeout limit with httr2::req_timeout().
Better management of non valid/duplicated/empty API keys.
New packages added to ‘Suggest’: terra.

CRAN release: 2024-06-23

Migrate from httr to httr2 (#50).
New functions for beaches: aemet_forecast_beaches() and aemet_beaches() (#54).
Use progress bars in downloads thanks to cli. New argument progress = TRUE in most functions.
It is possible to use several API keys to avoid API throttling, see ?climaemet::aemet_api_key (#53).
New helper function dms2decdegrees_2().
Update aemet_munic with January 2024 data.
New package in ‘Suggests’: mapSpain.

CRAN release: 2024-01-30

On aemet_monthly_period(extract_metadata = TRUE) honor the start and end parameters.
Update docs.

CRAN release: 2023-08-30

Now it is possible to extract metadata from each API call using the parameter extract_metadata = TRUE (#40).
Improve the API call system to avoid API throttling.
aemet_stations() result is cached temporarily on tempdir(), avoiding unneeded API calls.

package added to rOpenSpain project: repo transferred to https://github.com/rOpenSpain/climaemet

apikey parameter has been deprecated on all the functions. Now the API Key is globally managed via an environment variable: see aemet_api_key().

Results are provided on tibble format.
Results are parsed to the correct formats (numbers and dates when possible).
Spatial support: New option return_sf would return sf objects instead of tibble objects. sf(>= 0.9) required, listed on ‘Suggests’ so it is not strictly required.
API functions gain new parameters, as verbose, to check results.

aemet_last_obs() now is vectorized and it can also retrieve all the stations at a glance with station = "all"
aemet_last_obs() now is vectorized and it can also retrieve all the stations at a glance with station = "all"
aemet_daily_clim() now is vectorized and it can also retrieve all the stations at a glance with station = "all"
New function get_metadata_aemet().
New function ggclimat_walter_lieth(). This function is now the default for climatogram_* functions (experimental). Old behavior can be reproduced with options ggplot2 = FALSE.
Plot functions gains new parameters (verbose and ...). Now it is possible to pass colors to the plotting functions.
New example data sets: climaemet_9434_climatogram, climaemet_9434_temp, climaemet_9434_wind.

CRAN release: 2020-07-17

rename ggstripes_station() to climatestripes_station().
climatogram_normal(). New function to plot a Walter & Lieth climatic diagram from normal climatology values.
climatogram_period(). New function to plot a Walter & Lieth climatic diagram for a specified time period.
ggwindrose(). New function to plot windrose diagram.
windrose_days(). New function to plot a windrose (speed/direction) diagram of a station over a days period.
windrose_period(). New function to plot a windrose (speed/direction) diagram of a station over a time period.
