As of August 11, 2015, ODF::read_ODF returns a list with 9 elements,
one named DATA, which is a data.frame() containing the
columnar data, the others being headers of various sorts. The present
function constructs an oce object from such data, facilitating processing
and plotting with the general oce functions.
This involves storing the 8 headers verbatim in the
odfHeaders in the metadata slot, and also
copying some of the header
information into more standard names (e.g. metadata@longitude is a
copy of metadata@odfHeader$EVENT_HEADER$INITIAL_LATITUDE). As for
the DATA, they are stored in the data slot, after renaming
from ODF to oce convention using ODFNames2oceNames().
ODF2oce(ODF, coerce = TRUE, debug = getOption("oceDebug"))An oce object, possibly coerced to a subtype.
A list as returned by read_ODF in the ODF package
A logical value indicating whether to coerce the return value to an appropriate object type, if possible.
a flag that turns on debugging. Set to 1 to get a moderate amount of debugging information, or to 2 to get more.
This function may change as the ODF package
changes. Since ODF has not been released yet, this should not affect
any users except those involved in the development of oce and
ODF.
