Getting Available Scenario Combinations

Before using this function, you need to determine which combinations of GCM, RCM, BC, RCP, and ETP parameters are available. Use the get_drias_scenario() function to query available combinations

The returned data frame shows valid combinations of parameters that can be used with this function.

Parameter Options

• GCM: Global Climate Model - varies by scenario (e.g., "CNRM-CERFACS-CNRM-CM5", "ICHEC-EC-EARTH", "MOHC-HadGEM2-ES")

• RCM: Regional Climate Model - varies by GCM (e.g., "CNRM-ALADIN63", "SMHI-RCA4", "CLMcom-CCLM4-8-17")

• BC: Bias Correction method - "ADAMONT" or "CDFt" (note: CDFt has limited variable availability)

• RCP: Representative Concentration Pathway - "rcp26", "rcp45", or "rcp85" for future projections, or use historical data

• ETP: Evapotranspiration method - "FAO" or "Hg0175" (required only when requesting "evspsblpot" variable)

Coordinate System

Coordinates must be provided in Lambert II extended projection (EPSG:27572):

• LAMBX: X coordinate (Easting) in meters

• LAMBY: Y coordinate (Northing) in meters

If you have coordinates in a different CRS, use sf::st_transform() to convert to EPSG:27572 before querying, or pass an sf object directly (conversion is handled automatically)

Available Fields

Here are the available fields:

• "evspsblpot": Potential evapotranspiration (mm/d)

• "huss": Specific humidity at 2m (kg/kg)

• "prsn": Snowfall (mm/d)

• "rsds": Downward shortwave radiation (W/m²)

• "sfcWind": Surface wind speed (m/s)

• "tas": Air temperature at 2m (°C)

• "tasmax": Maximum air temperature at 2m (°C)

• "tasmin": Minimum air temperature at 2m (°C)

Value

A [stars][stars::st_as_stars][stars::st_as_stars()] object containing the DRIAS daily weather data. If overlay_mode is specified (sf method), the output will be masked by the input spatial object.

Details

Excerpt from the notice available on https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4005573: FYRE Climate (French hydrometeorological REanalysis Climate dataset) is a 25-member ensemble of 142-year high-resolution reanalysis of precipitation and temperature over France, from 1 January 1871 to 29 December 2012. FYRE Climate results from the assimilation of historical daily station observations of temperature and precipitation into the SCOPE Climate reconstructions (Caillouet et al., 2019) through a Kalman filter ensemble approach (Devers et al., 2020). FYRE Climate provides an ensemble of 25 equally-plausible spatially-coherent gridded bivariate time series. Data are available at a daily time step on a 8 km grid over France. Values cover grid cells located only within metropolitan France national borders (including Corsica). The FYRE Climate dataset is fully described by Devers et al. (2021).

Get Soil Available Water Capacity (AWC)

Description

Retrieves soil available water capacity (AWC) spatial data for a given study area. The function supports different data sources, with "BDGSF" as the default.

Usage

get_soil_awc(
  sf,
  source = "BDGSF",
  overlay_mode = "aggregate",
  key = Sys.getenv("API_TOKEN_DATAVERSE"),
  cache_dir = radis_cache_dir("soil_awc", source),
  cache = c("yes", "no", "force"),
  ...,
  force_download = NULL
)

get_soil_awc_from_bdgsf(
  sf,
  cache_dir,
  cache = c("yes", "no", "force"),
  ...,
  force_download = NULL
)

get_soil_awc_from_infosols(
  sf,
  with_coarse_elements = TRUE,
  key,
  cache_dir,
  cache = c("yes", "no", "force"),
  base_url = Sys.getenv("RADIS_API_BASE_URL", "https://api.g-eau.fr"),
  ...,
  force_download = NULL
)

Arguments

sf	An sf object representing the study area.
source	character The source of the soil AWC data. Can be either "BDGSF" (default, described here) or "Info&Sols" (described here).
overlay_mode	Character. Specifies how the spatial mask is applied to the input dataset. Must be one of: "within": selects only data strictly within the mask polygon(s). "intersecting": includes data that partially or fully intersect the polygon(s). "extent": includes all data within the bounding box of the mask polygon(s). "intersect_geometry": performs a full geometric intersection, returning clipped geometries. "aggregate": aggregates data by polygon (e.g., using zonal statistics).
key	character The API token from dataverse website. See here for more information about token usage on dataverse platforms. It is required for some datasets (e.g. Info&Sols). By default, it is an empty string.
cache_dir	character The directory where the file should be cached. By default, it uses a subdirectory in the radis cache directory (See radis_cache_dir).
cache	"yes" use the cache, "no" ignore the cache, "force" force re-download of the file even if it exists in the cache.
...	Further arguments passed to spatial_combination and query_api
force_download	Deprecated, use cache instead. If TRUE, force re-download of the file even if it exists in the cache.
with_coarse_elements	logical Only for "Info&Sols" source. Whether to include coarse elements in the soil AWC data. If TRUE, the function retrieves the AWC for the entire soil profile (0-200 cm) and its standard deviation. If FALSE, it retrieves the AWC for specific depth intervals (0-5 cm, 5-15 cm, 15-30 cm, 30-60 cm, 60-100 cm, and 100-200 cm).
base_url	Base URL for the API (default: "https://api.g-eau.fr", or the value of the RADIS_API_BASE_URL environment variable).

Details

By default, the API token is retrieved from the environment variable API_TOKEN_DATAVERSE. So you need to set this variable with your Dataverse API token before running the function or pass it directly as an argument.

BDGSF datasets don't require an API token for access, so we don't need to pass the key argument to the download function.

Value

A spatial object containing soil AWC data for the study area. The format depends on the data source and overlay_mode parameter. For BDGSF source, an sf object. For Info&Sols source, a SpatRaster object processed by spatial_combination.

Examples

# Using the example study area
sf <- sf::read_sf(
  system.file("extdata/study_area/test.shp", package = "RADIS")
)
# BDGSF source
awc_bdgsf <- get_soil_awc(sf = sf, source = "BDGSF")
awc_bdgsf
plot(awc_bdgsf[, c("soil_awc_max", "soil_awc_min")])

# Info & Sols source (90 m raster)
awc_infosols <- get_soil_awc(sf = sf, source = "Info&Sols")
awc_infosols
plot(awc_infosols[, 1:2])

Details

get_soil_texture() acts as a wrapper that not only calls the appropriate source-specific retrieval function (depending on the source argument) — such as "HWSD", "Info&Sols", or "Soilgrids" — but also performs a spatial combination of the retrieved soil data with the input geometries, according to the method specified by the overlay_mode parameter.

Disclaimer: The server providing the Regridded Harmonized World Soil Database (HWSD) is not reliable as of the date of this release (2025-11-05). Use at your own risk.

Value

An object containing soil texture information corresponding to the input sf features.

A SpatRaster object containing the requested soil texture layer clipped to the extent of sf.

A SpatRaster stack containing requested variables.

Examples

library(sf)
# Using an sf object
sf <- sf::read_sf(
  system.file("extdata/study_area/test.shp", package = "RADIS")
)
# Retrieve soil texture from infos&sols

Query API

Description

Query API

Usage

query_api(
  url,
  ...,
  output_format = "file",
  file_ext = NULL,
  cache_dir = radis_cache_dir(basename(url)),
  cache = Sys.getenv("RADIS_CACHE", "yes"),
  user_agent = getOption("RADIS.user_agent", "RADIS R package"),
  force_download = NULL
)

Arguments

url	API base URL.
...	Query parameters in format field = "value". Query parameters can also be embedded in a list.
output_format	API data format, either: "file" Save the data to the disk whatever its format "csv" returns a data.frame from a CSV output "json" returns a list from a json output "tibble_json" returns a tibble::tibble from a json output "raw" returns the API output without any conversion (binary format) "string" returns the API output without any conversion (string format)
file_ext	File extension for the saved file if output_format="file", ignored otherwise
cache_dir	character The directory where the file should be cached. By default, it uses a subdirectory in the radis cache directory (See radis_cache_dir).
cache	"yes" use the cache, "no" ignore the cache, "force" force re-download of the file even if it exists in the cache.
user_agent	User agent to use for HTTP requests. Defaults to "RADIS R package". Can be defined globally with the option "RADIS.user_agent"
force_download	Deprecated, use cache instead. If TRUE, force re-download of the file even if it exists in the cache.

Details

json and tibble_json handle API with paginated response through the links field in the API response. The function will automatically follow the next link to retrieve all pages of data. Other formats (csv, raw, string) do not handle paginated response and will only return the first page of data.

Value

If output_format = "file", the path of the cached file recorded from API output; otherwise, an object depending on the requested format.

Get radis cache directory

Description

Get radis cache directory

Usage

radis_cache_dir(
  ...,
  base_dir = file.path(Sys.getenv("RADIS_CACHE_DIR", rappdirs::user_cache_dir("radis")),
    "data-raw"),
  create_dir = TRUE
)

radis_cache_clean(cache_root = radis_cache_dir(""), erase = FALSE)

clean_radis_cache(cache_dir = radis_cache_dir(""))

Arguments

...	path inside the radis cache directory
base_dir	Base directory for the radis cache. By default, it uses the RADIS_CACHE_DIR environment variable if set, otherwise it uses the user cache directory for the "radis" application as determined by the rappdirs::user_cache_dir() function, with an additional "data-raw" subdirectory.
create_dir	Logical indicating whether to create the directory if it does not exist. Default is TRUE.
cache_root	Path to the radis cache directory.
erase	Logical. If TRUE, delete all files in the cache directory. If FALSE (default), perform smart auto-clean: remove oldest files until the total size is at or below getOption("radis.cache.max.size").
cache_dir	Path to the radis cache directory to be cleaned.

Details

The option radis.cache.max.size accepts a human-readable size string (e.g., "1GB", "500MB") or a numeric value in bytes. Accepted suffixes are KB, MB, GB, TB (case-insensitive). Default is "1GB".

Value

Path to the radis cache directory or a subdirectory inside it

Invisible NULL. Side-effect: files may be deleted from the cache.

Functions

• radis_cache_dir(): Returns the path to a radis cache directory, creating the directory if it does not already exist. On every call, automatic clean-up of the cache is triggered: files are removed (oldest first by access time) until the total cache size is at or below the configured maximum. Set radis.cache.max.size to NULL, a negative number, or NA to disable automatic cleaning.

• radis_cache_clean(): Performs automatic clean-up of the cache. This is called internally by radis_cache_dir() on every call. Users can also call it directly to trigger clean-up or to erase the entire cache.

• clean_radis_cache(): Cleans the entire radis cache directory by deleting all files. This function is deprecated; use radis_cache_clean(erase = TRUE) instead (deprecated).

Examples

## Not run: 
# Call cache dir (triggers auto-clean on base_dir)
radis_cache_dir("")

# Disable auto-clean
options("radis.cache.max.size" = NULL)

# Set custom max size
options("radis.cache.max.size" = "500MB")

## End(Not run)
