Description

Flag occurrences those are not in east Pacific and are inland

Usage

ec_flag_non_west_pacific(
  ocean_names,
  buffer_distance = 50000,
  data,
  latitude = "decimalLatitude",
  longitude = "decimalLongitude"
)

Value

A new column with flagged values, 1 means bad records 0 means good record. Column name: flag_non_region

Insert the name of oceans: "South Pacific Ocean", "North Pacific Ocean", North Atlantic Ocean", "South Atlantic Ocean"

Data table which has latitude and longitude information

latitude

default set to "decimalLatitude"

longitude

Examples

if (FALSE) {
ocean_names <- c("North Pacific Ocean", "South Pacific Ocean")
buffer_distance <- 25000
data <- data.frame(
  species = "A",
  decimalLongitude = c(-120, -78, -110),
  decimalLatitude = c(20, 34, 30)
)
data$flag_non_region <- ec_flag_non_west_pacific(
  ocean_names,
  buffer_distance,
  data,
  latitude = "decimalLatitude",
  longitude = "decimalLongitude"
)
