Enhydris API

• General

  • This is a major update. All the functions were rewritten utilizing the Enhydris API.
  • The included data in the package cover all Hydroscope's databases.
  • Added vignettes "Getting Hydroscope's data" and "Hydroscope's stations with available data". Removed the vignette "Using hydroscoper to get stations' and time-series' data".
  • Added package documentation page.

• New functionality:

  • get_instruments() returns a data frame with the instruments' data.
  • get_water_basins() returns a data frame with the Water Basins' data.
  • get_water_divisions() returns a data frame with the Water Divisions' data.
  • get_political_divisions() returns a data frame with the Political Divisions' data.
  • get_variables() returns a data frame with the Variables' data.
  • get_units_of_measurement() returns a data frame with the Units' data.
  • get_time_steps() returns a data frame with the Time Steps' data.
  • get_owners() returns a data frame with the Owners' data.
  • get_instruments_type()returns a data frame with the Instruments' type data.
  • get_station_type() returns a data frame with the Water Basins data.
  • get_database() returns a data frame with the Water Basins data.
  • hydro_coords returns a data frame with the stations' longitudes and latitudes using as input the variable point from get_stations function.
  • hydro_translate() translates various Greek terms to English.

• Changes

  • get_coords has been removed from the package. Please use hydro_coords to convert Hydroscope's points` raw format to a tidy data frame.
  • get_stations and get_timeseries use the Enhydris API and are considerably faster, because the older versions used web scrapping.
