FINBIF R PACKAGE
The finbif R package is a programmatic interface to the Finnish Biodiversity
Information Facility (FinBIF) API. FinBIF aggregates Finnish biodiversity data
from multiple sources in a single open access portal for researchers, citizen
scientists, industry and government. FinBIF allows users of biodiversity
information to find, access, combine and visualise data on Finnish plants,
animals and microorganisms. The finbif R package makes the publicly available
data in FinBIF easily accessible to programmers. Biodiversity information is
available on taxonomy and taxon occurrence. Occurrence data can be filtered by
taxon, time, location and other variables. The data accessed are conveniently
preformatted for subsequent analyses.
