camtraps: Sample camera trap station information
Description
General camera trap station informationformat
A data frame with 3 rows and 7 variablesDetails
This is a general example of a data.frame
that holds information about camera trap stations, e.g. setup and retrieval dates and coordinates. If more than 1 camera was set up at a station (often 2), a camera ID column can be added, with camera-specific information instead of station-specific information.
If cameras malfunctioned repeatedly, additional pairs of problem columns can be added, e.g. "Problem2from" and "Problem2to" etc..
The variables are as follows:
- Station. Camera trap station ID
- utm_y. y coordinate of station (northing)
- utm_x. x coordinate of station (easting)
- Setup_date. camera trap setup date
- Retrieval_date. camera trap retrieval date
- Problem1from. date of beginning of camera malfunction
- Problem1to. date of end of camera malfunction
