gmba_lower_id_from_higher: Get a lower mountain range ID from a higher mountain range ID

In GMBA-biodiversity/gmbaR: A set of R functions to work with the GMBA Inventory v2.0

Get a lower mountain range ID from a higher mountain range ID

Description

Get a certain lower GMBA Inventory v2.0 mountain range ID from a higher mountain range ID.

Within the GMBA Inventory v2.0 hierarchy, "lower" levels are spatially high, such as on the continental level. Consequently, "higher" levels are those of spatial detail, such as individual mountain ranges within a mountain system.

Usage

gmba_lower_id_from_higher(rangeid, lowerlevel_numeric, method)

Arguments

rangeid	String (character or numeric) of a single GMBA Inventory v2.0 mountain range ID
lowerlevel_numeric	A single number (as numeric), indicating what lower level to be given
method	Character string, the options are: "parent" = a certain lower range of range ID "steps" = number of lower levels from range ID See the README for a visual explanation of the two methods

Value

Character string of the lower GMBA Inventory v2.0 mountain range ID associated with the input ID
