[R] Need help with time series data

[arun]

HI,

You could try this:
Time1<-as.POSIXct("2013-01-01 00:00:00")
 tseq<-seq(Time1,length.out=50,by="secs")
 dat2<-data.frame(TIME=tseq,Data1=NA,Data2=NA,Data3=NA)
dat3<-read.table(text="
ID    Date TIME                        Data1        Data2        Data3
1    2013-01-01 00:00:00      34                53            66
2    2013-01-01 00:00:01      333              4              5
3   2013-01-01 00:00:05      333              4              5
4    2013-01-01 00:00:20      34                63            66
5    2013-01-01 00:00:25      433              5             8
6   2013-01-01 00:00:26      533              8              5
",sep="",stringsAsFactors=FALSE,header=TRUE)
 dat4<-data.frame(TIME=as.POSIXct(paste(dat3$Date,dat3$TIME)),dat3[,4:6])
 dat2[,-1][dat2[,1]%in%dat4[,1],]<-dat4[,-1]
 head(dat2)
 #                TIME Data1 Data2 Data3
#1 2013-01-01 00:00:00    34    53    66
#2 2013-01-01 00:00:01   333     4     5

#5 2013-01-01 00:00:04    NA    NA    NA
#6 2013-01-01 00:00:05   333     4     5

Dear R users,

Could you share your knowledge on following problem:

Suppose we have dataframe:

ID     TIME                         Data1         Data2        Data3
........... Data700
1.    2013-01-01 00:00:00       34                53             66
............    55
2.    2013-01-01 00:00:01       333               4               5
............     50
3.    2013-01-01 00:00:02       and so on
4.    2013-01-01 00:00:03       and so on
5.    2013-01-01 03:00:45       44                33               4
.............     66
6.    2013-01-01 03:00:46       46                35               7
.............     6

Notice that between ID 4 and ID 5 there is a gap, that instrument was
turned off. It started automatically in 2013-01-01 03:00:45 and continues
till the next turn off.
What I need R to do, is to find these gaps, and insert missing time values
with empty Data lines to have no gaps in time and empty (or NA) values in
data place:


ID     TIME                         Data1         Data2        Data3
........... Data700
1.    2013-01-01 00:00:00       34                53             66
............    55
2.    2013-01-01 00:00:01       333               4               5
............     50
3.    2013-01-01 00:00:02       and so on
4.    2013-01-01 00:00:03       and so on
5.    2013-01-01
00:00:04
<- time with empty (or NA) data values inserted
6.    2013-01-01
00:00:05
<- time with empty (or NA) data values inserted
7.    2013-01-01
00:00:06
<- time with empty (or NA) data values inserted
................
and so on, until the time when instrument works again:
      2013-01-01 03:00:45       44                33               4
.............     66
      2013-01-01 03:00:46       46                35               7
.............     6



All your suggestions will be appreciated!
