_Safe Software extraction of climate forecast data_

We reviewed the GeoJSON Feature point data extracted from the https://climate-change.canada.ca/climate-data/#/downscaled-data[Climate scenario RPC4.5 downscaled for Canada] provided by Safe Software. As a preliminary test of combining the reanalysis and forecast data the SPI was calculated using reanalysis data up until the end of 2022 and then forecast data for 2023 and 2024; see comparisons in <<Pixalytics_forecast>>.
