The ocedata
package supplies some oceanographic
datasets, for general use and as an adjunct to the oce
package. Indeed, some of the datasets were once supplied by
oce
, but they were moved to ocedata
to reduce
storage pressure on the CRAN system, based on the assumption that
oce
will be updated more frequently than
ocedata
.
Stable versions of ocedata
may be installed from within
R, in the same way as other packages, with
install.packages("ocedata")
However, this version is only updated a few times a year (pursuant to
CRAN policy), so some users install ocedata
from the
github.com website instead, to get the latest version. This may be done
with
library(devtools)
install_github("dankelley/ocedata", ref="main")
These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
