[R-sig-Geo] space time error message

[Milan Kilibarda]

Dear Abdoulaye,

Regarding to your Error message, I guess you should check if the time
format in your observation set was appropriate. In spacetime package
POSIXct is preferable. See  ? as.POSIXct, for easy converting from
string to POSIX* format. If you still have problem, than you should
send at least  str(dprec84) and str(stations1), or even better make
small subset in mail of your data, then people from the list could try
to reproduce the problem; try to find solution; and it can help
someone with a similar problem.
Best,
Milan
