Normalize a load panel to the elcf4R schema — elcf4r_normalize

Convert a raw long-format load table into a normalized panel that uses the column names expected by the package examples and model wrappers.

Usage

elcf4r_normalize_panel(
  data,
  id_col,
  timestamp_col,
  load_col,
  temp_col = NULL,
  dataset = NA_character_,
  resolution_minutes = NULL,
  tz = "UTC",
  keep_cols = NULL
)

Arguments

data: Data frame containing at least an entity identifier, a time stamp and a load column.
id_col: Name of the entity identifier column.
timestamp_col: Name of the timestamp column.
load_col: Name of the load column.
temp_col: Optional name of the temperature column.
dataset: Short dataset label stored in the normalized output.
resolution_minutes: Sampling resolution in minutes. If NULL, it is inferred from the timestamps. Fractional minute values are allowed for high-frequency data.
tz: Time zone used to parse timestamps.
keep_cols: Optional character vector of extra source columns to keep.

Value

A data frame with normalized columns dataset, entity_id, timestamp, date, time_index, y, temp, dow, month and resolution_minutes, plus any requested keep_cols.
