# kwb.dwd

This package provides functions to simplify the access to the data
provided online by the Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD, https://www.dwd.de).
It currently contains a function \code{get_radolan_urls} that returns the
internet addresses (Unified Resource Locators, URLs) to the zip files
containing rain data from the RADOLAN system in daily or hourly resolution
(see https://www.dwd.de/DE/leistungen/radolan/radolan.html). The function
\code{download_radolan} helps you to download these files. But take care,
you should rescrict the time period as each file contains the data for
all of Germany.

## Installation
