Description
trimData() allows users to define start date, start time and number of days for analysing data sets.
Usage
trimData(data, start.date, start.time, n.days, bin = 1, t.cycle = 24)
Arguments
data |
Input data file. This must be DAM scanned monitor files, saved in 1-min intervals starting at time 00:00. |
start.date |
Define starting date for analysis. Date inputs must be in this form: "DD Mon YY"; August 6, 2020 must be input as "6 Aug 20". Any other form will result in computation errors. |

n.days |
Number of days to analyse. |
bin |
Intervals in which data are sampled (in minutes). This defaults to 1. |
t.cycle |
Define the period of the environmental cycle or a single day in hours. This defaults to 24. |
Value
A data.frame containing trimmed data.

td <- trimData(data = df, start.date = "19 Dec 20", start.time = "21:00",
n.days = 10, bin = 1, t.cycle = 24)
