mergeCOORD: Merge coordinates data sets

In Thonnard/VisualMWM: R functions to visualize Morris water maze data

Merge coordinates data sets

Description

The mergeCOORD function reads all xlsx/csv files in a specific folder and creates a single output data file ("data_merged (current date).csv"). Input: xlsx files or csv files created with Ethovision: Analysis > Export > Raw data...(export settings for csv: File type: ANSI text, delimiter: ","). The output file contains a data set with time, x and y coordinates, animal id, trial info and group (when available)

WARNING: depending on the number of xlsx/CSV files, this might take several minutes.
