The goal of weed is to make the analysis of EM-DAT and related datasets easier, with most of the pre-processing abstracted away by functions in this package!
Installation of the following packages : readxl, dplyr, magrittr, tidytext, stringr, tibble, geonames, countrycode, purrr, tidyr, forcats, ggplot2, sf, rgeos.
You also need a geonames user account if you intend to use the geocoding functionality of this package. Info on how to get one for free is available here.
You can install the development version from GitHub with:
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("rammkripa/weed")This is a basic example which shows a common weed workflow:
em <- read_emdat("/Users/ramkripa/Desktop/Tk2.xlsx", file_data = TRUE)

#> * `` -> ...2locationized_data <- em$disaster_data %>%
tail() %>%
split_locations(column_name = "Location") %>%
head()

-
Half of our observations, even in this toy dataset, don’t have Lat/Long data
-
The Lat/Long here is blatantly wrong.
Lat > 90? Long > 360? How is this possible?
So, we must recode this Lat/Long data
locationized_data %>%
percent_located_locations(lat_column = "Latitude",
lng_column = "Longitude")
A reminder that you need a geonames username to access this feature of
the weed package.
More info available here.
