Search Pan-European Species directories Infrastructure (PESI)

Description

PESI has a SOAP API. We store the machine generated API specification in the package as the object pesi_iface. However, you can update the spec if you want using pesi_gen_iface, then pass the output of that fxn to the iface parameter of pesi_* functions.

Details

The following functions are available to interact with PESI:

• pesi_gen_iface Generate new PESI SOAP API interface.

• pesi_name_common Get complete taxonomic hierarchy from a PESI ID.

• pesi_name_scientific Get scientific name from a PESI ID.

• pesi_records Get PESI records from a PESI ID, an external ID, a scientific name, a common name, or a start- or end-date.

• pesi_synonyms Get scientific name synonyms from a PESI ID.

• pesi_distributions Get distribution data

• pesi_guid Search for a GUID from a scientific name
