Red de Información Agroclimática de Andalucía (RIA) service
RIA service offers the data of the andalucian automatic meteorological stations network. This network is supported and assessed by the Junta de Andalucía and the data should be trustworthy.
RIA options
Temporal resolution
RIA API offers data at different temporal resolutions:
- “daily”, returning the daily aggregated measures for all or selected stations.
- “monthly”, returning the monthly aggregated measures for all or selected stations.
In both, “daily” and “monthly”, a start_date (and
optionally an end_date) arguments must be provided,
indicating the period from which retrieve the data.
Stations
RIA API needs station codes and province codes to retrieve the data.
Sadly, RIA doesn’t provide unique station codes, and the uniqueness
comes with the province id and station code together. So, to narrow the
data retrieving to the desired stations they must be provided as a
character vector of “province_id-station_code” values (i.e. “14-2”) for
the stations argument. Calling
get_stations_info_from('ria', ria_options) will show the
station correct codes in the station_id column to take as
reference.
