summaryData: Summary of Species Occurrence Data

In LimaRAF/plantR: Managing Species Records from Biological Collections

Summary of Species Occurrence Data

Description

This function provides a general summary of the occurrence data, including the number of records, biological collections, taxa and countries.

Usage

summaryData(x, print = TRUE, top = 5)

Arguments

x	a data frame with the occurrence data.
print	logical. Should the first part of the table be printed? Default to TRUE.
top	numerical. Number of groups (e.g. collections, families) to be printed. Default to 5.

Details

The summary output depends on the presence of some key columns in the input data frame x, which should follow the Darwin Core standards. If the edited columns from plantR are given, they are given priority to report the data summaries.

The function prints the summary tables related to the occurrence data. However, the tables generating those summaries can be saved into an object.
