# pak::pak("ropensci/riem")
install.packages("riem", repos = c('https://ropensci.r-universe.dev', 'https://cloud.r-project.org'))
Please refer to the pkgdown website to read docs, in particular the reference and the vignettes.
The latlon argument of riem_measures() default to FALSE:
you need to explicitly set it to TRUE for the latitude and longitude of the station to be included in the output.
