simulariatools is a free collection collection of functions and tools useful to pre and post process data for air quality modelling and assessment. The package is developed and maintained by the people at Simularia and it is extensively used for their daily job.
If you use this package in your work, please consider citing it. Refer to its Zenodo DOI to cite it.
Install the released version of simulariatools from CRAN:
Or install the development version from GitHub with:
Note: in order to use importADSOBIN() to import ADSO/BIN data files, a working installation of Python 3 is required. For more information about R and Python interoperability, please refer to reticulate documentation.
First, import air quality data from NetCDF or ADSO/BIN files with the appropriate convenience function:
library(simulariatools)
mydata <- importRaster(file = "./test/conc_avg.nc",
k = 1000,
destaggering = TRUE,
variable = "nox",
verbose = TRUE)
#>
#> Raster statistics -----------------------------------------------
#> X (min, max, dx) : 496000.000 519250.000 250.000
#> Y (min, max, dy) : 4943000.000 4955250.000 250.000
#> nox (min, max, mean): 0.00e+00 2.71e+00 1.52e-01
#> -----------------------------------------------------------------A quick contour plot with default configuration can be easily obtained by running contourPlot2() without any argument:
The plot is customisable by using contourPlot2() arguments and by piping ggplot2 instructions:
library(ggplot2)
contourPlot2(mydata,
domain = c(502000, 519000, 4943125, 4955125, 5, 5),
levels = c(-Inf, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, Inf),
legend = "NOx [ug/m3]") +
labs(x = NULL, y = NULL) +
theme_minimal()
#> Warning: Removed 1225 rows containing non-finite values
#> (`stat_contour_filled()`).
Use ggsave() to save the last plot to file:
Use tile optional argument to produce a plot without interpolation:
library(ggplot2)
contourPlot2(mydata,
tile = TRUE,
legend = "NOx [ug/m3]") +
labs(x = NULL, y = NULL) +
theme_minimal()
#> Warning: Removed 280 rows containing missing values (`geom_raster()`).
