Added NERACOOS buoy functions #16
Conversation
The buoy functions were made for the lobster forecast but I think they can be used more broadly. Contains four functions. DownloadBuoyCTD, loadNERACOOSnetcdf, makeDailyMean, surfbotcorr. Still need to create a vignette

There was a problem hiding this comment.
roxygen comments will be needed to connect the functions to the "NAMESPACE" documentation. Not sure if the package will "build" without those connections.
Another thing that will flag as a warning or a note is whether or not you specify where a function comes from or not, ex. raster::extract(). Doing that is tedious but helps seperate meaningful warnings from the more benign.

The buoy data came up last week in a discussion with Dave and Andy Thomas about SST for the NOAA Gulf of Maine quarterly report. Might be worthwhile when we have a breather to circle back on these functions, and possibly get them updating on a schedule as well. I haven't gotten there with SST, so it might be beneficial to go over that together. |

Just want to follow up on this since @dzaugis has moved on to advance his career. As-is these functions are just missing documentation for the package to identify the names/arguments. One path forward could be for somebody to tackle that, an alternative could be to adapt the code to use {rerddap}. Both are viable paths for accessing buoy data, but if we lean more on ERDDAP as a data publishing platform then we could apply a similar access workflow as things get added. Thinking already about buoys, CPR data, CMIP ensemble data etc. |
