This package contains functions to retrieve, organize, and
visualize weather data from the NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis and
NCEP/DOE Reanalysis II datasets. Data are queried via the
Internet and may be obtained for a specified spatial and
temporal extent or interpolated to a point in space and time.
We also provide functions to visualize these weather data on a
map. There are also functions to simulate flight trajectories
according to specified behavior using either NCEP wind data or
data specified by the user.
