This package provides functions to simplify the access to the data provided online by the Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD, https://www.dwd.de). It currently contains a function \code{get_radolan_urls} that returns the internet addresses (Unified Resource Locators, URLs) to the zip files containing rain data from the RADOLAN system in daily or hourly resolution (see https://www.dwd.de/DE/leistungen/radolan/radolan.html). The function \code{download_radolan} helps you to download these files. But take care, you should rescrict the time period as each file contains the data for all of Germany.
