United Kingdom’s Met Office dataset preliminary analysis: The R script
As promised, I want to share with you the R code I used to generate all the beautiful charts of the United Kingdom’s Met Office dataset preliminary analysis post.
First of all, you need to download the dataset. I don’t want to hotlink directly the MySQL dump file that this guy produced, so just go over to his site and download it from there. In the meantime you can also see the perl script he wrote to convert the original dataset to the MySQL dump that we will be using.
Once you have downloaded the MySQL dump, uncompress it and import it into your MySQL database. In my case I created a database called “ClimateChange” and granted all rights on that database to a user called “ClimateChange” and without password.
Once you have your data in the database, you can start using R with this script available on GitHub.
