Transform Julian Day to Calendar Date Object in R (Example Code)
In this tutorial you’ll learn how to change a Julian day to a calendar date in the R programming language.
Construction of Example Data
x <- c(5, 37, 216, 45) # Create example Julian day x # [1] 5 37 216 45 |
x <- c(5, 37, 216, 45) # Create example Julian day x # [1] 5 37 216 45
Example: Transforming Julian Days to Dates Using as.Date() Function
x_date <- as.Date(x, origin = as.Date("2020-01-01")) # Get date from Julian day x_date # [1] "2020-01-06" "2020-02-07" "2020-08-04" "2020-02-15" |
x_date <- as.Date(x, origin = as.Date("2020-01-01")) # Get date from Julian day x_date # [1] "2020-01-06" "2020-02-07" "2020-08-04" "2020-02-15"
