get_data_drill_apsim {weatherOz} | R Documentation |
Fetch APSIM .met file formatted weather data from the weather data from the SILO API of spatially interpolated weather data (DataDrill). The daily climate surfaces have been derived either by splining or kriging the observational data. The returned values contain “source” columns, which denote how the observations were derived. The grid spans 112° to 154°, -10° to -44° with resolution 0.05° latitude by 0.05° longitude (approximately 5 km × 5 km).

An apsimx object of class ‘met’ with attributes.
Rainfall
Maximum temperature
Minimum temperature
Vapour pressure
Class A pan evaporation
Solar exposure, consisting of both direct and diffuse components
Solar radiation: total incoming downward shortwave radiation on a horizontal surface, derived from estimates of cloud oktas and sunshine duration2.
Evaporation and evapotranspiration: an overview of the variables provided by SILO is available here, https://data.longpaddock.qld.gov.au/static/publications/Evapotranspiration_overview.pdf.
Where the source code is a 6 digit string comprising the source code for the 6 variables. The single digit code for each variable is:
an actual observation;
an actual observation from a composite station;
a value interpolated from daily observations;
a value interpolated from daily observations using the anomaly interpolation method for CLIMARC data;
a synthetic pan value; or
an interpolated long term average.
To save “met” objects the apsimx::write_apsim_met()
is reexported.
