ACTsplit: Split detections into CSV files according to ACT database

In mhpob/TelemetryR: Handle VEMCO detection data.

Description

ACTsplit filters all detections according to the researchers in the ACT Network

Usage

ACTsplit(
  directory = getwd(),
  ACTtrans,
  write = TRUE,
  out = NULL,
  start = "2000-01-01",
  end = Sys.Date(),
  ...
)

Arguments

directory	String passed on to vemsort. Location of CSV data, which defaults to current working directory.
ACTtrans	character. Location of ACT transmitter database.
write	Logical. Do you want to output CSV files? Useful if you are only looking for unidentified detections.
out	String. Where do you want the CSV files placed?
start	Character date in a standard unambiguous format (e.g., YYYY-MM-DD) from which you want to start pulling detections, assumed to be Eastern time zone. Defaults to Jan 1, 2000.
end	Character date in a standard unambiguous format (e.g., YYYY-MM-DD) to stop pulling detections, assumed to be Eastern time zone. Defaults to current system date.
...	Optional arguments to vemsort (parallel? progress bar?)

Details

This function uses vemsort to import detections, then matches these detections with transmitters submitted to ACT. It also allows a specified date range and removal of personal or private transmitters.

Value

Outputs are CSV files in the form of ResearcherCurrentdate.csv and a data frame containing detections of unidentified codes. The CSV files will be found in your current working directory by default.
