When using data from external sources it’s a good idea to take note of when data was downloaded, which version (if possible) and with what.
Reproducibility with weathercan
can be achieved by
taking note (or better yet, compiling reports) with the following
information:
For example:
# Work
library(weathercan)
s <- stations_search("Winnipeg", normals_years = "current")
w <- weather_dl(s, interval = "month", start = "2021-01-01")
# Reproducibility
stations_meta()
citation('weathercan')
devtools::session_info() # Install devtools if you don't have it
