county_points

A dataframe containing locations of population mean centers for counties in
the eastern United States. Each county is identified by its 5-digit Federal
Information Processing Standard (FIPS) code. This dataframe can be used to
model storm winds at each county center. This dataset was put together using
a dataframe from the U.S. Census Bureau, which was pulled from the website
listed in "Source".

datasets

Allows users to input tracking data for a hurricane
or other tropical storm, along with a data frame of grid points at which
to model wind speeds. Functions in this package will then calculate wind
speeds at each point based on wind model equations. This modeling framework
is currently set up to model winds for North American locations with
Atlantic basin storms. This work was supported
in part by grants from the National Institute of Environmental Health
Sciences (R00ES022631), the National Science Foundation (1331399), and the
Department of Energy (DE-FG02-08ER64644).
