Convert Among Citation Formats

Converts among many citation formats, including 'BibTeX', 'Citeproc', 'Codemeta', 'RDF XML', 'RIS', 'Schema.org', and 'Citation File Format'. A low level 'R6' class is provided, as well as stand-alone functions for each citation format for both read and write.

Get 'SNP' ('Single-Nucleotide' 'Polymorphism') Data on the Web

A programmatic interface to various 'SNP' 'datasets' on the web: 'OpenSNP' (< https://opensnp.org>), and 'NBCIs' 'dbSNP' database (< https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/SNP/>). Functions are included for searching for 'NCBI'. For 'OpenSNP', functions are included for getting 'SNPs', and data for 'genotypes', 'phenotypes', annotations, and bulk downloads of data by user.

Species Trait Data from Around the Web

Species trait data from many different sources, including sequence data from 'NCBI' (< https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/>), plant trait data from 'BETYdb', data from 'EOL' 'Traitbank', 'Birdlife' International, and more.

Interface to 'DigitalOcean'

Provides a set of functions for interacting with the 'DigitalOcean' API < https://www.digitalocean.com/>, including creating images, destroying them, rebooting, getting details on regions, and available images.

R Client for the eBird Database of Bird Observations

A programmatic client for the eBird database (< https://ebird.org/home>), including functions for searching for bird observations by geographic location (latitude, longitude), eBird hotspots, location identifiers, by notable sightings, by region, and by taxonomic name.

An R Interface to 'figshare'

An R interface to 'figshare'.

R Interface to the DataONE REST API

Provides read and write access to data and metadata from the DataONE network < https://www.dataone.org> of data repositories. Each DataONE repository implements a consistent repository application programming interface. Users call methods in R to access these remote repository functions, such as methods to query the metadata catalog, get access to metadata for particular data packages, and read the data objects from the data repository. Users can also insert and update data objects on repositories that support these methods.

Functional Programming Tools

A complete and consistent functional programming toolkit for R.

'NOAA' Weather Data from R

Client for many 'NOAA' data sources including the 'NCDC' climate 'API' at < https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/webservices/v2>, with functions for each of the 'API' 'endpoints': data, data categories, data sets, data types, locations, location categories, and stations. In addition, we have an interface for 'NOAA' sea ice data, the 'NOAA' severe weather inventory, 'NOAA' Historical Observing 'Metadata' Repository ('HOMR') data, 'NOAA' storm data via 'IBTrACS', tornado data via the 'NOAA' storm prediction center, and more.

Downloading Supplementary Data from Published Manuscripts

Downloads data supplementary materials from manuscripts, using papers' DOIs as references. Facilitates open, reproducible research workflows: scientists re-analyzing published datasets can work with them as easily as if they were stored on their own computer, and others can track their analysis workflow painlessly. The main function suppdata() returns a (temporary) location on the user's computer where the file is stored, making it simple to use suppdata() with standard functions like read.csv().
