Extract data within a boundary Tutorial error

Hi, I went back to the first part in the r tutorial after failing to modify it and noticed that the original script runs the following error

(one step earlier than the person who had the plotBBoxt error :) )

## Request the data

> sanctchl <- rxtractogon (dataInfo, parameter=parameter, xcoord=xcoord, ycoord=ycoord,tcoord=tcoord,zcoord=zcoord)

[1] "Requested coordinate names do no match dataset coordinate names"

[1] "Requested coordinate names: longitude" "Requested coordinate names: latitude"

[3] "Requested coordinate names: altitude" "Requested coordinate names: time"

[1] "Dataset coordinate names: time" "Dataset coordinate names: latitude"

[3] "Dataset coordinate names: longitude"

[1] "error in call to rxtracto_3D"

[1] "see messages above"

> str(sanctchl)

chr "rxtracto_3D error"

> sanctchl1 <- sanctchl

can someone tell me what´s wrong?

best,

Alice

Hi Alice,

I just ran it and it worked for me. Can you retry? Maybe the server was having an issue when you ran it and couldn't download the data properly. Did you change any of the code? Make sure you run every single line.

Alice -

The rerddapxtracto error messages are actually very helpful. Its telling you there is a mismatch between the requested coordinates, and the coordinates of the dataset. You are requested 4 coordinates, including altitude, but the dataset only has three. So remove the zcoord=zcoord from your function call and it should work.

I am working on writing up the common errors and how to trouble shoot them and hopefully will be able to share that document with everyone later today.

Dear Melanie, dear Cara,

thanks for your answers.

@Cara - you´re right it says it right there!! Had just read through your common R mistakes sheet and thought I recognized something;) Now it´s running, thanks!

pd. I was wondering whether the slides of your narrated videos (e.g. water quality video) could be made available as PDF for the participants? Would be super helpful for a quick (review) look at a e.g. chl-a, CDOM spectral characteristics, used bands and suggested products. Unfortunately that occured to me after already having send the evaluation. Maybe you´ll still see this here.

Best,

Alice

Hi Alice,

Of course, I've now added the ppt, pdf and mp4 versions of the lectures for everyone to have for reference in the shared folder on google drive at: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/19uqyhkgqIzb8dnDfcJklhablSNcHIE8W
