`data`	Vector of characters. Name of the input file.
`rd.frmt`	Vector of characters. The file format to read. By default it will be read as a R object using the `'readRDS'` argument, but it can be read as plain text using the `'readTXT'` argument. See details.
`path`	Vector of characters. Path to the data file(s).
`min.occ`	Numeric vector. Minimal number of georeferenced occurrences for that a species can be considered. If the argument is 3, only species with 3 or more occurrences will be considered in the process.
`round.coord`	Integer. Number of digits to keep in coordinates.
`wrt.frmt`	Vector of characters. Format to save output file. By default it will be written as a R object using `'saveRDS'` argument, but it can be saved as plain text using `'saveTXT'` argument. See details.
`save.min.occ.in`	Character. Path to save the output file of species that do not fulfill the minimum required number of occurrences in the parameter `min.occ`. Default format is `'.RDS'`. Se details.
`save.georef.in`	Vector of characters. Path to write the output file for each species with georeferenced records.
`save.ungeoref.in`	Character. Path to save ungeoreferenced data, a file for each species. Default format is `'.RDS'`. Se details.

For more details about the formats to read and/or write, see readAndWrite function.

The headers of the input file must follow the Darwin Core standard [2]. The user can see the guide using data('ID_DarwinCore) command.

By each species, if this is the case, two output files data.frame class: The first one have the georeferenced and the second one have the ungeoreferenced
