In evanmascitti/soilmesh: Processes 3D Meshes Without Headaches

Description Usage Arguments Details Value

A file naming sheme was developed for this project to ensure all data files are uniquely identified. Each .ply file contains 4 pieces of information (see details). This function parses the file name into useful metadata about the specimen. Returns a tibble for use subsequent analysis with tidyverse tools.

1	parse_mesh_filename(x)

`x`	Character vector of `.ply` files to read

Each file name contains 4 pieces of information, separated by underscores. These provide enough information to uniquely identify every scan, and the additional information about the soil can be added via joining other data frames. The pieces of information encoded in the file names are (in order of appearance):

experiment_name: A two-digit identifier or a character string corresponding to the particular set of mixes or task. 2. soil_ID 3-digit number or other character string identifying the soil within the experiment 3. date Calendar date of the scan in POSIX format, i.e. YYYY-MM-DD 4. cylinder_ID The aluminum sample holder containing the specimen of interest

Data frame containing 5 columns; the first holds the full file path while the rest hold the data which uniquely identify the file (See details)
