Today's Progress:

  • revisit getting exif data from photo and plotting on R leaflet map

Thoughts:

  • had to do some tweaking, and figure out why lib folder of dependencies wasn't copying (not sure why, but I did finally get it to work)
    • I think the fix was htmlwidgets::saveWidget(selfcontained = TRUE) vs FALSE

Today's Progress:

  • finally got the ARME iNaturalist Shiny App to publish

Thoughts:

R2D154 2021-06-03

Today's Progress:

  • recreate Shiny app for iNaturalist observations of Arbutus menziesii

Thoughts:

  • I had trouble getting date formatting, though I didn't need it for this app
  • Shiny app won't open/publish in Shinyapps.io online:
    • Error Message: "An error has occurred: Unable to connect to worker after 60.00 seconds; startup took too long."
    • I'd like to try to figure out how to import iNaturalist info separate from app and just use the shiny app to visualize data already downloaded ??

Today's Progress:

R2D129 2021-05-09

Today's Progress:

  • Trying to map Geo-referenced photos using R and Leaflet
  • access EXIF data from photos exifr
    • exifr(files) doesn't work, but read_exif(files) does!
  • .csv and .html files will be saved to working directory - I tried to find a way not to have to keep changing directory, but no luck
  • get popup to show image >>> had to make image smaller to fit in popup window
    • added markerClusterOptions() to show how many images in one place, but then map Tiles don't show at highest zoom - was able to get Stamen.TonerLite to work
    • figured out how to add text to popup window

Thoughts:

  • I need to cull my photos, or at least put the special ones in a separate directory
  • wasn't able to figure out how to make the resulting map responsive html?
  • even when working from someone else's code, there is likely to be some command that no longer works

Week XII

R2D74 2021-03-15

Today's Progress:

  • wanting to find out the colour palette from an image of Herring spawn, I found R package imgpalr, which finds the hex colour values
  • using a 'dummy' plot to test with different colours, instead of copy/paste different hex codes, I used the relative position of hex code in the character string of values e.g. str(imgpal) >> ## chr [1:9] "#67A49B" "#487977" "#66A398" "#355B5A" "#3F6E61" "#233C3E" ... >> imgpal[3] >> ## [1] "#66A398"
  • interested to know the name of some of these hex colour I found code to create a dataframe of hex colour names, but couldn't yet find a way to use these in plots
  • reworked Climate Stripes code

Thoughts:

  • I see a need, then look for how to fullfill it through trial & error ...
  • Best results: crop image to reduce amount of background colour i.e. I was only interested in milky blue cyans, so I cropped-out the darker pixel areas, and got better colour palette results
  • test-driving new code in a .rmd file instead of regular script, for reproducability
  • need to find a way to clean up Environment Canada historic climate date within R
