Extract all geographical coordinates of the nodes from a fvcom netCDF file and convert to simple features object.

Usage

extract_geos_fvcom(nc_obj, orig_crs, crs = NULL, name_x = "", name_y = "")

Arguments

nc_obj: Open fvcom netCDF file to retrieve time data from.
orig_crs: Numerical value of the crs used in the netCDF file.
crs: Numerical value of the crs to change results into, if different from the original crs.
name_x: Name of the geographical x coordinate to be extracted. If not specified, an attempt will be made to establish this from the netCDF file itself.
name_y: Name of the geographical y coordinate to be extracted. If not specified, an attempt will be made to establish this from the netCDF file itself.

Value

Special features data frame containing the geographic coordinates of the nodes in the provided fcvom netCDF file.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
 # open the netCDF file
 the_nc_obj <- ncdf4::nc_open("path/to/netCDF/file.nc")

 # extract all spatial points from the netCDF file
 extract_geos_fvcom(the_nc_obj, crs = 4326)

 # if the names of the spatial coordindates aren't picked up automatically
 extract_geos_fvcom(the_nc_obj, crs = 4326, name_x = "lon", name_y = "lat")
} # }
