chirps: API Client for CHIRPS and CHIRTS

API Client for the Climate Hazards Center 'CHIRPS' and 'CHIRTS'. The 'CHIRPS' data is a quasi-global (50°S – 50°N) high-resolution (0.05 arc-degrees) rainfall data set, which incorporates satellite imagery and in-situ station data to create gridded rainfall time series for trend analysis and seasonal drought monitoring. 'CHIRTS' is a quasi-global (60°S – 70°N), high-resolution data set of daily maximum and minimum temperatures. For more details on 'CHIRPS' and 'CHIRTS' data please visit its official home page <https://www.chc.ucsb.edu/data>.
