- query
Query string for a general search.
- taxon_name
Filter by iNat taxon name. Note that this will also select observations of
descendant taxa. Note that names are not unique, so if the name matches multiple taxa, no
observations may be returned.
- taxon_id
Filter by iNat taxon ID. Note that this will also select observations of descendant taxa.
- place_id
Filter by iNat place ID.
- quality
The quality grade to be used. Must be either "casual" or "research". If left
blank both will be returned.
- geo
Flag for returning only results that are georeferenced, TRUE will exclude
non-georeferenced results, but they cannot be excluded.
- annotation
Filter by annotation. Vector of length 2, the first
element being the term ID (e.g. "1" for life stage) and the second
element being the value ID (e.g. "2" for adult). Refer to the
annotation documentation to know which values to use.
- year
Return observations only in that year (can only be one year, not a range of years).
- month
Return observations only by month, must be numeric, 1...12
- day
Return observations only on a given day of the month, 1...31
- bounds
A bounding box of longitude (-180 to 180) and latitude (-90 to 90) to search
within. It is a vector in the form of southern latitude, western longitude, northern latitude,
and eastern longitude. Alternatively supply an sf or sp object from which the bounding box will
be derived.
- photo_license
Filter by photo license. Values can be CC variations ("CC0", "CC-BY", CC-BY-NC", "CC-BY-SA", "CC-BY-ND", "CC-BY-NC-SA", "CC-BY-NC-ND"), "any" (any CC licence), or "none" (all rights reserved). Note that an observation and its photos don't necessarily have the same licence.
- maxresults
The maximum number of results to return. Should not be
a number higher than 10000.
- meta
(logical) If TRUE, the output of this function is a list with metadata on the output
and a data.frame of the data. If FALSE (default), just the data.frame.
