Overview

About

Maintained by André MoanFirst published 2026-05-121 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Read 'FPOD' and 'CPOD' data into 'R' directly from the 'FPOD' data files (i.e. .CP1, .CP3, .FP1 and .FP3 files). The 'FPOD' data files contain binary data, so they can't trivially be read into 'R' using the usual approach, e.g. fread() or read.csv(). This package decodes the binary data and imports all the data in one go (i.e. header/metadata, clicks, 'KERNO' classifications, environmental data and pseudo-WAV data). It is then trivial to aggregate data as you please, e.g. detection-positive-minutes per time block. The advantage of handling data processing in 'R' is a long topic, but suffice it to say that it 1) simplifies things (many fewer steps, as different vars have to be exported in multiple goes in the official 'FPOD' app), and more importantly, 2) makes data processing transparent and reproducible.

Install

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

install.packages("fpod", 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("supermoan/fpod")

Development version from supermoan/fpod. 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-fpod

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

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-fpod

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-fpod

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
