updateUID: Update Detection UIDs

In PAMmisc: Miscellaneous Functions for Passive Acoustic Analysis

Update Detection UIDs

Description

Update the UIDs of detections in a Pamguard database. UIDs can become mismatched when re-running data, this will attempt to re-associate the new UIDs in binary files with detections in the database

Usage

updateUID(db, binaries, verbose = TRUE, progress = TRUE)

Arguments

db	database file to update UIDs
binaries	folder of binary files to use for updating
verbose	logical flag to show summary messages
progress	logical flag to show progress bars

Value

Same database as db, but with an additional column "newUID" added to each detection table with updated UIDs if found. "newUID" will be -1 for any detections where no match was found
