get_taxon_coverage | R Documentation |
This function downloads the current taxon index across published datasets and returns a formatted taxon table showing the taxonomic hierarchy of each taxon, along with the taxonomic authority used for validation (GBIF or NCBI). The returned data frame includes a count of the number of datasets that include each taxon. The function requires an internet connection.
