Dear all, I have a set of coordinates. Is it possible to extract climate data (temperature and precipitation) by coordinates using the R packages such as rnoaa? For example; out <- ncdc(datasetid='ANNUAL', stationid='GHCND:USW00014895', datatypeid='TEMP') But instead of stationid can I pass a list of coordinates through it? Thanks a lot! Sincerely, Milu
Climate data in R

The rnoaa package has the function ncdc_stations which can be used to search for stations in a region. You could use that giving it an extent around the coordinates that you are interested in (add and subtract a small amount from the coordinates), then pass the results from that function (possibly subsetted) into the ncdc function.
