In ropensci/rAvis: Interface to the Bird-Watching Dataset Proyecto AVIS

#' We developed several functions to explore and donwload 
#' the information stored in ProyectoAVIS database (www.proyectoavis.com), 
#' in an easy and visual way.
#' 
#' We programmed two main functions to set flexible queries 
#' about the species occurrences and the birdwatcher 
#' observations: avisQuerySpecies and avisQueryContributor. 
#' Besides, there are also general functions 
#' to explore the database, like avisMapSpecies.
