bio.save: Import ‘BIO’ tables to a rangeMapper project.

Description

Import tables (e.g. life history data) to an active rangeMapper project.

Usage

bio.save(con, loc, tableName, ...)
bio.merge(con, tableName, ...)
metadata2bio(con, ...)

Arguments

con

an sqlite connection pointing to a valid rangeMapper project.

loc

file location or data.frame name.

tableName

if missing, the name of the file or data.frame is used

...

arguments to pass to the corresponding methods: e.g. the ID, the column corresponding to the names of the range files

Value

a ‘BIO’ table is created in the corresponding rangeMapper project.

Examples

require(rangeMapper)
require(rgdal)
wd = setwd(tempdir())
r = readOGR(system.file(package = "rangeMapper",
	"extdata", "wrens", "vector_combined"), "wrens", verbose = FALSE)
dbcon = rangeMap.start(file = "wrens.sqlite", overwrite = TRUE,
	dir = tempdir() )
global.bbox.save(con = dbcon, bbox = r)
gridSize.save(dbcon, gridSize = 2)
canvas.save(dbcon)
processRanges(spdf = r, con =  dbcon, ID = "sci_name" )

# Upload BIO tables
data(wrens)
Troglodytes  = wrens[grep("Troglodytes", wrens$sci_name), c(2, 5)]
bio.save(con = dbcon, loc = Troglodytes,  ID = "sci_name")

setwd(wd)
