This session presents programmatic access to GBIF data using R with focus on the rOpenSci rgbif-package. We will also explore the taxize R-package for handling taxon names.
- Introduction to rgbif (tutorial)
- Filtering using data terms (and spatial geometry)
- Taxon names / resolving (using taxize). What is "nubkey”?
- Asynchron download (see also GBIF API)
- Programmatic access to GBIF data in R with rgbif >> Rmd
- Asynchron download >> Rmd script
- Filtering using data terms and spatial geometry (to be added)
- Example data quality tests >> Rmd script
- Session 3 slides
Navigate to workshop home (Github) or the GitHub.io pages.
