agrimet stations

[dgketchum]

Hi Jared,

Small world: I'm going to work for Jensco et al at UM. I'm working on remote sensing methods to estimate evapotranspiration. Some of the methods need radiation data from Bureau of Reclamation AgriMet stations. Is this something you've considered adding to obsio? Would you be open to a PR if I were to write it in? Is there a testing suite that has been excluded from the github code?

I guess you could consider this a feature request, though I'd like the opportunity to learn more about obsio by adding another provider. This assuming that there is not a serious obstacle to using AgriMet that I'm ignorant of.

I think this is a great package, and could serve many other purposes aside from TopoWX and whatever else you've used it for that I'm unaware of. I hope to write code like this some day!

Cheers,

Hi David, Definitely feel free to add AgriMet to obsio. I believe AgriMet is part of the MADIS provider I already have coded, but it will likely be easier to have AgriMet as its own provider. Extracting data from MADIS can be complicated and slow. I haven't been able to maintain obsio over the past year, so any additional features, bug fixes, etc. are more than welcome. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Best, Jared
