About

Biodiversity Data Visualizations using R. This package offers a set of functions to visualize biodiversity occurrence data through R. Please check the paper describing the package Barve, V., and J. Otegui. 2016. bdvis: visualizing biodiversity data in R. Bioinformatics:btw333. https://academic.oup.com/bioinformatics/article/32/19/3049/2196391

The development of the package started as a Google Summer of Code project.

Installation

install.packages("bdvis") 
require(bdvis) 

Packages bdvis suggests

(for the purpose of building examples) + [rinat] (https://github.com/ropensci/rinat)

Functions currently available

For the sake of examples, we will work with some data obtained using the package rinat

install.packages("rinat") 
require(rinat)  # Data download might take some time
inat <- get_inat_obs_project("reptileindia") 
inat <- format_bdvis(inat,source='rinat')
inat <- inat[,c("id","Date_collected", "Latitude", "Longitude", 
                "Scientific_name", "Cell_id", "Centi_cell_id")]
