timestamp_dmon: Add a timestamp DMON wav files

In hansenjohnson/lfdcs2raven: Review LFDCS Output in Raven Pro

Description

Add a timestamp DMON wav files

Usage

timestamp_dmon(dmon_dir, prefix = "", suffix = "")

Arguments

dmon_dir	The directory containing dmon wav and xml files
prefix	String to be added to new filename before timestamp
suffix	String to be added to new filename after timestamp

Details

Digital acoustic monitoring instruments (DMON) hydrophones log audio data in a 'wav' file and metadata in a 'xml' file. This program simply renames the wav file to include the file start time, which is useful for viewing the data in other sound analysis software (such as Raven Pro). This is achieved by extracting the start time of the wav file from the associated xml header file. The original and new timestamps will be saved in an R data file ('dmon_filenames.rds') in the dmon data directory. See undo_timestamp_dmon() for how to convert back to the original timestamps. NOTE - this will only work for continuous DMON data (i.e., *not* duty cycled).
