bird-tracking-etl

bird-tracking-etl package as written by @bartaelterman and updated by @stijnvanhoey to process and enrich bird tracking data from UvA-BiTS for easier use by (mainly) INBO researchers.

Original description:

At the Research Institute for Nature and Forest, we're tracking large birds as part of our LifeWatch contribution. We are using small solar-powered GPS devices, developed by UvA-BiTS. The data are stored in the UvA-BiTS virtual lab and we frequently get a dump from that database on which we work. As tracking data volume grows quicker than human observation data (what we usually work with), we were in need for a data store that contains the cleaned and enriched tracking data in a system that is optimized for querying these large-ish data sets. Something like a data warehouse. This R package contains code to extract the data from the UvA-BiTS virtual lab, clean and enrich it, and load it in the data warehouse.
