fastbioclim: Scalable and Flexible Derivation of Custom-Time Bioclimatic and Environmental Summary Variables

Résumé fourni par la source

Provides a high-performance framework for deriving bioclimatic and custom summary variables from large-scale climate raster data. The package features a dual-backend architecture that intelligently switches between fast in-memory processing for smaller datasets (via the 'terra' package) and a memory-safe tiled approach for massive datasets that do not fit in RAM (via 'exactextractr' and 'Rfast'). The main functions, derive_bioclim() and derive_statistics(), offer a unified interface with advanced options for custom time periods and static indices, making it suitable for a wide range of ecological and environmental modeling applications. A software note is in preparation. In the meantime, you can visit the package website <https://gepinillab.github.io/fastbioclim/> to find tutorials in English and Spanish.
