Introduction to vegbankr
This package is an R client for VegBank, the vegetation plot database
of the Ecological Society of America’s Panel on Vegetation Classification,
hosted by the National Center for
Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS). VegBank contains
vegetation plot data, community types recognized by the U.S. National
Vegetation Classification and others, and all ITIS/USDA plant taxa along
with other taxa recorded in plot records. As a VegBank API client, the
vegbankr package currently supports querying and
downloading vegetation plot records and other supporting information
from the VegBank database, and will soon support validating and
uploading new data to the VegBank database as well.
