The goal of nyccars is to scrape data from nyc.gov and provide some formatting (not implemented yet)
You can install the released version of nyccars from github via devtools::
devtools::install_github("shill1729/nyccars")This is a basic scraping example. The function will print the dimensions of each individual data-set and give a warning if they have different number of column-variables.
library(nyccars)
# Download and combine data-set time-series for march and april of 2020
# for high-volume for-hire trips
# Takes about a minute or two
dat <- highVolumeTimeSeries(from = 3, to = 4)Similarly download the entire March to June range via
library(nyccars)
# Will probably take a lot longer.
dat <- highVolumeTimeSeries(from = 3, to = 6)
