In biodiversity-aq/OmicsMetaData: OmicsMetaData: an R-package for interoperable and re-usable biodiversity 'omics (meta)data

Description

converts a DarwinCore extended Measurement Or Fact (eMOF) file, which is has a "long" file format into a wide tabular format

Usage

eMoF.to.wideTable(dataset)

Arguments

dataset

a dataframe of the eMoF file

Details

Long formated data if great for data arciving, but is difficult to use in day-to-day statistical analyses. This function extracts the data from an eMoF file and puts it in a wide sample x variable table

Value

a list of length 3: "$data" the data in a wide formt, "$units" the units, and "$method" the methods

Examples

sampleNames <- c("sample_1", "sample_2")
test_emof <- data.frame(eventID = c(rep(c("sample_1", "sample_2"), 2)),
                        measurementType = factor(c(rep("var1", 2), rep("var2", 2))), 
                        measurementValue = c(1:4),
                        measurementUnit = c(rep("unit1", 2), rep("unit2", 2)))
eMoF.to.wideTable(test_emof)
