Pivot ADCP data from bin height as column names to bin height as observations

Usage

adcp_pivot_longer(dat_wide, rm_NA = TRUE)

Arguments

dat_wide

Data frame of ADCP data, as returned from adcp_read_txt() or adcp_assign_alt().

rm_NA

Logical argument. If rm_NA = TRUE, rows where sea_water_speed_m_s is NA OR sea_water_to_direction_degree is NA will be removed.

Value

Returns data in a long format.

If dat_wide is from adcp_read_txt() (i.e., bin altitude has not been assigned), then the following columns are returned: timestamp_utc, sensor_depth_below_surface_m (SensorDepth), bin_id (the default column names when imported using read_adcp_txt; starts at V8), sea_water_speed_m_s (WaterSpeed), and sea_water_to_direction_degree (WaterDirection).

If dat_wide is from adcp_assign_altitude(), then the following columns are returned: timestamp_utc, sensor_depth_below_surface_m (SensorDepth), bin_depth_below_surface_m, bin_height_above_sea_floor_m, sea_water_speed_m_s (WaterSpeed), and sea_water_to_direction_degree (WaterDirection).
