read.ctd.odf(file, columns = NULL, station = NULL, missingValue, monitor = FALSE, debug = getOption("oceDebug"), processingLog, ...)
file |
A connection or a character string giving the name of the file to
load. For |
columns |
An optional |
station |
Optional character string containing an identifying name or number for the station. This can be useful if the routine cannot determine the name automatically, or if another name is preferred. |

additional arguments, passed to called routines. |
read.ctd.odf
reads files stored in Ocean Data Format, used in
some Canadian hydrographic databases.
An object of ctd-class
. The details of the contents
depend on the source file. The metadata
slot is particularly
variable across data formats, because the meta-information provided
in those formats varies widely.
Dan Kelley
The ODF format, used by the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans, is
described to some extent in the documentation for read.odf
. It
is not clear that ODF format is handled correctly in read.ctd.odf
, or
the more general function read.odf
, because the format
varies between some sample files the author has encountered in his research.
