About

Maintained by Peter DesmetCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗Declared funder: Research Foundation - Flanders

Read and manipulate Camera Trap Data Packages ('Camtrap DP'). 'Camtrap DP' (https://camtrap-dp.tdwg.org) is a data exchange format for camera trap data. With 'camtrapdp' you can read, filter and transform data (including to Darwin Core) before further analysis in e.g. 'camtraptor' or 'camtrapR'.

Changes in 0.6.1

write_camtrapdp() continues to write files in the v1 specification of Data Package, as required by the Camtrap DP standard. This is in preparation of an upcoming version of the {frictionless} dependency, which uses the v2 specification as default. Users can thus safely install the latest version of {frictionless} and still write valid Camtrap DP datasets (#221).

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("camtrapdp", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("inbo/camtrapdp")

Development version from inbo/camtrapdp. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-camtrapdp

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-camtrapdp

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-camtrapdp

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
