摘要

气象数据的获取和理解对社会各部门的管理至关重要。因此，我们的目标是在R编程环境中开发一个包，用于下载和处理巴西国家气象研究所（INMET）提供的数据，并使用Shiny（交互式web应用程序）创建一个免费的基于web的工具，以简化包中提供的功能的使用。开发了DataMetProcess软件包，提供了从数据库中提取信息、正确时区、更改时间尺度和根据Penman-Monteith模型计算参考蒸散发的四个基本功能。开发的Shiny web应用程序有三个版本：(1)代码；(2)便携式;(3)网络版本。DataMetProcess包和开发的web应用程序可以有效地处理INMET提供的数据，使信息访问民主化，并通过交互式web应用程序促进分析。最后，由于是开源的，它可以很容易地在世界范围内进行调整和使用。我们鼓励研究界采用这一工具，并提供反馈，以进一步完善其可用性和效率。

DataMetProcess: An open-source package and Shiny application for the acquisition and processing of meteorological data from INMET

The acquisition and understanding of meteorological data are crucial for management in various sectors of society. Thus, the objective was to develop a package in the R programming environment to download and process data provided by Brazilian National Institute of Meteorology (INMET) and to create a free web-based tool using Shiny (interactive web apps) to simplify the use of the functions provided in the package. The DataMetProcess package was developed, offering four essential functions to extract information from the database, correct time zones, change the time scale, and calculate reference evapotranspiration according to the Penman-Monteith model. The Shiny web application developed is available in three versions: (1) the code; (2) portable; and (3) a web version. The DataMetProcess package and the developed web application are effective in processing the data provided by INMET, democratizing access to information and facilitating analysis through the interactive web application. Finally, being open-source, it can be easily adapted and used worldwide. We encourage the research community to adopt this tool and provide feedback to further refine its usability and efficiency.

期刊介绍： SoftwareX aims to acknowledge the impact of software on today''s research practice, and on new scientific discoveries in almost all research domains. SoftwareX also aims to stress the importance of the software developers who are, in part, responsible for this impact. To this end, SoftwareX aims to support publication of research software in such a way that: The software is given a stamp of scientific relevance, and provided with a peer-reviewed recognition of scientific impact; The software developers are given the credits they deserve; The software is citable, allowing traditional metrics of scientific excellence to apply; The academic career paths of software developers are supported rather than hindered; The software is publicly available for inspection, validation, and re-use. Above all, SoftwareX aims to inform researchers about software applications, tools and libraries with a (proven) potential to impact the process of scientific discovery in various domains. The journal is multidisciplinary and accepts submissions from within and across subject domains such as those represented within the broad thematic areas below: Mathematical and Physical Sciences; Environmental Sciences; Medical and Biological Sciences; Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences. Originating from these broad thematic areas, the journal also welcomes submissions of software that works in cross cutting thematic areas, such as citizen science, cybersecurity, digital economy, energy, global resource stewardship, health and wellbeing, etcetera. SoftwareX specifically aims to accept submissions representing domain-independent software that may impact more than one research domain.
