Work with geo-temporal data

The Geo package is experimental and subject to change at any time. By using it, you agree to the risks of experimental functions.

To work with geo-temporal data:

1. Import the package.

Functions in the Flux Geo package require lat and lon fields and an s2_cell_id tag. Rename latitude and longitude fields and generate S2 cell ID tokens.

Use the geo.filterRows function to filter geo-temporal data by box-shaped, circular, or polygonal geographic regions.

Many of the examples in this section use a variable that represents a sample set of geo-temporal data. The provides sample geo-temporal data that meets the requirements of the Flux Geo package.

Use the to load the sample bird migration data:

sample.data() downloads sample data each time you execute the query (~1.3 MB). If bandwidth is a concern, use the to() function to write the data to a bucket, and then query the bucket with .
