tv.metadata

R Documentation

Show metainfo of vegetation database or ecodbase

Description

Showing "metadata.txt" when specified and saved in Turboveg database directory. When db = 'eco' and refl specified, metainfo of species attribute table is displayed.

Usage

tv.metadata(db, refl, tv_home, filename = 'metadata.txt', ...)

Arguments

`db`	Turboveg database name
`refl`	Turboveg taxonomic reference list, declaration only necessary for ecodbase info
`tv_home`	Turboveg installation path
`filename`	Name of metainfo file residing in database directory
`...`	additional arguments

Details

Because Turboveg provides no formalised method to store information about database fields, I suggest to save a simple text file, named for example "metadata.txt" into the directory of your Turboveg database.
