Overview

About

Maintained by Julian O'GradyFirst published 2024-01-167 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Methods for generating modelled parametric Tropical Cyclone (TC) spatial hazard fields and time series output at point locations from TC tracks. R's compatibility to simply use fast 'cpp' code via the 'Rcpp' package and the wide range spatial analysis tools via the 'terra' package makes it an attractive open source environment to study 'TCs'. This package estimates TC vortex wind and pressure fields using parametric equations originally coded up in 'python' by 'TCRM' https://github.com/GeoscienceAustralia/tcrm and then coded up in 'Cuda' 'cpp' by 'TCwindgen' https://github.com/CyprienBosserelle/TCwindgen.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("TCHazaRds", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("AusClimateService/TCHazaRds")

Development version from AusClimateService/TCHazaRds. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-tchazards

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-TCHazaRds

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-TCHazaRds

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
