pdb.autodiv

A wrapper around pdb(), occ.cleanup() and mk.sptab() to automatically download and clean occurrence data from the paleobiology database and build species-level taxon-range tables for multiple taxa in one step.

Contains various tools for conveniently downloading and editing taxon-specific datasets from the Paleobiology Database <https://paleobiodb.org>, extracting information on abundance, temporal distribution of subtaxa and taxonomic diversity through deep time, and visualizing these data in relation to phylogeny and stratigraphy.
