SplitWBPHS R Documentation
Combine and parse raw WBPHS data files
Description
SplitWBPHS will combine multiple observation files and split into annual observer files
Usage
SplitWBPHS(folder.path)
Arguments
folder.path
The directory path to the folder for input and output files.
Details
SplitWBPHS takes a folder of raw text files (generally at the transect or stratum level) and combines them into an annual data file
for an observer using the naming convention: WBPHS_YYYY_RawObs_NNN.csv, where YYYY is the 4 digit year and NNN is 3 character initials.
Columns must be in the following order: Year, Month, Day, Seat, Observer, Stratum, Transect, Segment, Flight_Dir, A_G_Name, Wind_Dir,
Wind_Vel, Sky, Filename, Lat, Lon, Time, Delay, Species, Num, Obs_Type.
It will also add the columns Behavior, Distance, Code, and Notes that aren't used in the standard WBPHS protocol, but have become
the standard in Alaska Region aerial surveys.
Value
Year-Observer combinations of data in csv format to folder.path
