ecodata

This data file is consider as raw data file after merging and removing duplicate records of all data sources. e.g. this file is an output of occurrence records of mollusc species "Mexacanthina lugubris" with all modern records extracted from GBIF, OBIS, IDIGBIO and InvertEBase

datasets

Provides step-by-step automation for integrating biodiversity data from multiple online aggregators, merging and cleaning datasets while addressing challenges such as taxonomic inconsistencies, georeferencing issues, and spatial or environmental outliers. Includes functions to extract environmental data and to define the biogeographic ranges in which species are most likely to occur. For methodological details see the associated publication.<doi: 10.1002/ecog.08203>.
