title: 'TrackTrap: Model Cumulative Growing Degree-Days for Pest Monitoring'
version: 0.1.0
abstract: Raw data from pest monitoring/traps can be correlated with environmental
  factors such as temperature, growing degree day etc. to get useful insights about
  the pest phenology. This package pulls temperature data from the California Irrigation
  Management Information System ('CIMIS', <https://cimis.water.ca.gov>) or the 'Daymet'
  application programming interface ('API', <https://daymet.ornl.gov>) for a user-specified
  time period and calculates cumulative growing degree-days. Users provide pest development
  thresholds (lower and upper temperatures) and the geographic coordinates of the
  trap location to track emergence and phenology.
