getNOAA.bathy - Error in if (ncol(x) == 3 & !exists("bathy", inherits = FALSE)) { : argument is of length zero

I already looked at the forum in Github and I did what they mentioned but still is not working. I updated the version of the library (rgdal) and library (raster) and my lON and LAT don't have decimals.

I update all the packages, the marmap packages I installed form CRAN and GibHub neither seem to work

ETPBathy <- getNOAA.bathy(lon1 = -98, lon2 = -79, lat1 = 7, lat2 = -6, resolution = 1)

ETPBathy <- getNOAA.bathy(lon1 = -98, lon2 = -79, lat1 = 7, lat2 = -6, resolution = 1) Querying NOAA database ... This may take seconds to minutes, depending on grid size Error in if (ncol(x) == 3 & !exists("bathy", inherits = FALSE)) { : argument is of length zero


Still not working, maybe the R version? Does anyone know what to do in this case?

marmap v1.0.9 is now available on GitHub:

remotes::install_github("ericpante/marmap")

This version should solve the infamous Error message encountered by some (most ?) Windows users:

Error in if (ncol(x) == 3 & !exists("bathy", inherits = FALSE)) { :
argument is of length zero

I have been able to confirm that the error was due to a limitation in the length of urls that the raster package can handle on Windows. The geotif files from NOAA's servers are now downloaded with utils::download.file() in a temporary file on the user's disk and then imported in R using raster::raster().

marmap v1.0.9 will be available on CRAN servers in the next few days.
