gbif_issues() changes: three new occurrence issues added; one name issue removed that’s deprecated (#423)gbif_citation() rights field was empty unless pulling from a downloaded file; now fill in with license key; also a fix for when occurrence key passed to the function (#424)establishmentMeans now supported in occ_download/pred (#420)occ_download_get(): response content-type header changed recently, fixed (#422)plyr::rbind.fill - use data.table::rbindlist in all cases (#417)dataset_search() (#418)occ_download_cancel_staged() fix: was broken cause we were indexing to a column in a table with [,"key"] (#416)occ_search, occ_get, name_usage, name_lookup, name_suggest, name_backbone, and dataset_search) have a return parameter to toggle what is returned from the function call. To simplify rgbif maintainence, we’ve deprecated the return parameter. We’ve left it in each of the functions, but it no longer does anything, other than raising a warning if used. This means that function calls to these functions now always return the same data structure, making it easier to reason about for the user, as well as for us developers trying to make sure the package works as expected under a variety of conditions. If you have been using the return parameter, do the same function call as before, but now index to the output you need. This is a breaking change, thus the major version bump (#413)occ_download_cached(), which takes the same input as occ_download(), but instead of starting a query, it checks if you’ve recently made the same request (with configureable settings for what “recent” means). This can save time when you’re doing occurrence download requests that you may have done in the recent past (#308)api.gbif-uat.org and api.gbif.org. We have only used the latter previously, but now can configure rgbif to use the former, mostly for testing purposes (#398)occ_download_import() gains encoding parameter that is passed down to data.table::fread to make it very clear that encoding can be configured (even though you could have before via ...) (#414)/occurrence/search route is now 100,000 (used in occ_data() and occ_search()). updated docs throughout accordingly (#405)occ_download_queue() for how we determine when a job is done. see new section “When is a job done?” (#409)print.occ_download_prep and print.occ_download improved. previously well-known text strings were printed in their entirety. now they are handled to only print so many characters; also applies to any download predicate string that’s long (#407)occ_download_get() now supports using a progress bar by passing in httr::progress() (#402)occ_data() and occ_search() gain two new parameters: recordedByID and identifiedByID (#403)occ_download_queue: an empty occ_download_meta() lead to problems; now removing any NULL’s from a list of occ_download_meta() outputs before further work (#408)occ_download_queue: we were not accounting for job status “cancelled” (#409)occ_download_import() fix: fill parameter was set to TRUE by default, changed to FALSE. improved docs for this fxn on passing down parameters to data.table::fread (#404)?downloads manual file listing all the different download status states a download can have and what they mean (#390)gbif_issues/gbif_issues_lookup: added four missing occurrence issues to the package (COORDINATE_PRECISION_INVALID, COORDINATE_UNCERTAINTY_METERS_INVALID, INDIVIDUAL_COUNT_INVALID, and INTERPRETATION_ERROR) (#400)occ_download() via vcr (#396)name_lookup(): we were attempting to rearrange columns when no results found, leading to an error (#399)spellCheck parameter has been removed from the occurrence routes; thus, the occ_spellcheck() function is now defunct - and the parameter spellCheck has been removed from occ_data() and occ_search() (#397)occ_data(): remove ... parameter definition as it wasn’t used in the function (#394)occ_download() has changed in a breaking fashion (thus the major version bump). After installation, see ?download_predicate_dsl. Much more complex queries are now possible with occ_download(). TL;DR: you now construct queries with functions like pred("taxonKey", 3119195) rather than passing in strings like taxonKey = 3119195, and pred_gt("elevation", 5000) instead of "elevation > 5000" (#362)occ_download_wait() to re-run occ_download_meta() until the download is ready - kinda like occ_download_queue() but for a single download (#389)occ_download_dataset_activity() gains pagination parameters limit and start to paginate through results (#382)gbif_citation() now works with the output of occ_data() in addition to the other existing inputs it accepts (#392)occ_download() manual file (#387)gbif_citation() tests needed preserve body bytes for vcr (#384)occ_count() and count_facet(): isGeoreferenced/georeferenced variable needed booleans converted to lowercase before being sent to GBIF (#385) (#386)mvt_fetch() for fetching Map Vector Tiles (MVT). mvt used to be an option in map_fetch(), but we only returned raw bytes for that option. With mvt_fetch() we now leverage the protolite package, which parses MVT files, to give back an sf object (#373) thanks to @jeroen for the protolite work to make this workmap_fetch() loses the format = ".mvt" option; and thus now only returns a RasterLayerocc_issues() and name_issues() reworked. Both now use the same underlying internal logic, with occ_issues pulling metadata specfic to occurrence issues and name_issues pulling metadata specific to name issues. name_issues used to only be a data.frame of name issues, but can now be used similarly to occ_issues; you can pass the output of name_usage() to name_issues to filter/parse name results by their associated name issues. Associated with this, new function gbif_issues_lookup can be used to lookup either occurrence or name issues by their full name or code (#363) (#364)name_usage() wasn’t working (#328) (#363) (#364)name_lookup() gains an additional parameters issue for filtering name results by name issues (#335) (#363) (#364)x, y, z parameters in map_fetch() manual file (#375)gbif_citation() manual file for accessing many citations (#379)occ_download_queue() (#365)name_* function outpus have changed, so be aware if you’re using those functionsmap_fetch(): when srs was EPSG:3857, the extent we set was incorrectly set as raster::extent(-180, 180, -85.1, 85.1).

SIMPLE_CSV and SPECIES_LIST are csv formats, while DWCA is the darwin core format (#352)NA in addition to NULL for a missing parameter - both are removed before being sent to GBIF (#351)tibble::as_data_frame/tibble::data_frame with tibble::as_tibble (#350)key and gbifID in the output of occ_data/occ_search/occ_get have been changed so that both are character class (strings) to match how GBIF encodes them (#349)occ_download: fail with useful message when user does not pass in queries as character class (#347)occ_download: fail with useful message now when user/pwd/email not found or given (#348)elevation() function: the Google Maps API requires a form of payment up front, and so we’ve decided to move away from the service. elevation() now uses the Geonames service https://www.geonames.org/; it does require you to register to get a username, but its a free service. Geonames has a few different data models for elevation and can be chosen in the elevation_model parameter (#344) (#345)occ_data()/occ_search() output: the data.frame in the data slot now always has the first column as the occurrence key (key), and the second column is now the scientific name (scientificName). the previously used name column still exists in the data.frame, so as not to break any user code, but is simply a duplicate of the scientificName column. in a future version of this package the name column will be dropped (#329)occ_search()/occ_data()/occ_download() documentation on WKT (well-known text) with respect to winding order. GBIF requires counter-clockwise winding order; if you submit clockwise winding order WKT to occ_search() or occ_data() you should get data back but the WKT is treated as an exclusion, so returns data outside of that shape instead of within it; if you submit clockwise winding order WKT to occ_download() you will get no data back (#340)occ_download(), was failing in certain cases because of some bad code in an internal function catch_err() (#333)occ_download() was not returning user name and email in it’s print method (#334)occ_issues() was failing with occ_data() or occ_search() input when type="many" (i.e., when > 1 thing was passed in) (#341)vcr package so do not require an internet connection (#306) (#327)name_usage() problem, more work coming to allow users to use the name issues data like we allow for occurrence issues through occ_issues() (#324)map_fetch() changes following changes in GBIF maps API: new parameters taxonKey, datasetkey, country, publishingOrg, publishingCountry and removed parameters search and id; note that this changes how queries work with this function (#319)map_fetch() docs that style parameter does not necessarily use the style you give it. not sure why (#302)occ_download_queue() to report an accurate number of jobs being processed; before we were just saying “kicking off first 3 requests” even if there were only 1 or 2 (#312)occ_get() when verbatim=TRUE (#318)elevation() function now fails better. when the API key was invalid the function did not give an informative message; now it does (#322)occ_download_queue(): sleep time between successive calls to check on the status of download requests is now 10 seconds or greater. This shouldn’t slow down your use of occ_download_queue() much because most requests should take more than the 10 seconds to be prepared (#313)@importFrom fxns used from lazyeval package to avoid check note (#316)reshape2 and maps packages from Suggests (#317)name_usage(): we were screwing up parsing of issues column when single taxon keys passed in (#314)occ_issues() now works with download data and arbitrary data.frame’s (#193)occ_download_prep() for preparing a download request without executing it, and occ_download_queue() for kicking off many download jobs while respecting GBIF’s downloads rate limits.

We still use rgeos for some WKT parsing. rgbif functions that use wicket: gbif_bbox2wkt, gbif_wkt2bbox, check_wkt (#243)httr replaced with crul for HTTP reqeusts. As part of this change, the ... parameter was replaced in most functions by curlopts which expects a list. Some functions require a ... parameter for facet inputs, so ... is retained with the addition of curltops parameter. A result of this change is that whereas in the past parameters that were not defined in a function that also had a ... parameter would essentially silently ignore that undefined parameter, but with functions where ... was removed a misspelled or undefined parameter will cause an error with message (#256)occ_download_import() to allow import of csv type download in addition to darwin core archive. additional change to occ_download_get to add format attribute stating which format (#246)occ_download_import adding fill=TRUE to the data.table::fread call (#257)occ_dowload gains new parameter body to allow users to pass in JSON or a list for the query instead of passing in statements to ....

This feature is not in occ_data() as that function focuses on getting occurrence data quickly, so will not do get facet data. This means that a new slot is available in the output object from occ_search(), namely facets. Note that rgbif has had faceted search for the species search route (name_lookup()) and the registry search route (dataset_search()) for quite a while. (#215)occ_facet()) to facilitate retrieving only facet data, so no occurrence data is retrieved. (#215) (#229)occ_search() and occ_data() following addition the GBIF search API: subgenusKey, repatriated, phylumKey, kingdomKey, classKey, orderKey, familyKey, genusKey, establishmentMeans, protocol, license, organismId, publishingOrg, stateProvince, waterBody, locality (#216) (#224)spellCheck added to occ_search() and occ_data() that if TRUE spell checks anything passed to the search parameter (same as q parameter on GBIF API; which is a full text search) (#227)occ_spellcheck to spell check search terms, returns TRUE if no spelling problems, or a list with info on suggestions if not.occ_search() and occ_data() now have ability to support queries where limit=0, which for one should be possible and not fail as we did previously, and second, this makes it so that you can do faceted searches (See above) and not have to wait for occurrence records to be returned. (#222)MULTIPOLYGON well known text features now supported in the GBIF API. Previously, you could not query geometry with more than one polygon (POLYGON), but now you can. (#222)occ_count(), especially for the set of allowed parameter options that the GBIF count API supportsocc_count() gains new parameter typeStatus to indicate the specimen type status.data slot now returns NULL instead of a character stringgbif_photos(): 1) Mapbox URLs to their JS and CSS assets were out of date, and API key needed. 2) In RStudio, the table view was outputting errors due to serving files on localhost:<port> instead of simply opening the file; fixed now by checking platform and using simple open file command appropriate for the OS.

Came from https://discuss.ropensci.org/t/rgbif-using-geometry-in-occ-download/395type was being silently ignored in a number of registry functions. fixed that. (#211)occ_data() and occ_search() gain ability to more flexibly deal with inputs to the geometry parameter. Previously, long WKT strings passed to occ_search() or occ_data() would fail because URIs can only be so long. Another option is to use the download API (see ?downloads). This version adds the ability to choose what to do with long WKT strings via the geom_big parameter: asis (same as previous version), bbox which detects if a WKT sting is likely too long, and creates a bounding box from the WKT string then once data is retrived, clips the result to the original WKT string; axe uses the geoaxe package to chop up the input WKT polygon into many, with toggles in the new parameters geom_size and geom_n. (#197) (#199)geom_big="axe", then named elements of the output get names geom1, geom2, geom3, etc. instead of the input WKT strings - this is because WKT strings can be very long, and make for very awkward named access to elements. The original WKT strings can still be accessed via attr(result, "args")$geometryname_usage() function, see commit e88cf01cc11cb238d44222346eaeff001c0c637etestthat fxn names, e.g., expect_gt() instead of expect_more_than()occ_download() to parse error correctly when empty body passed from GBIF (#202)occ_data() - its primary purpose to perform faster data requests.

(#176) thanks @luisDVA/species route, fix to function name_usage() (#174)occ_search() to remove a block of code to do synonym checking. This block of code was used if the parameter scientificName was passed, and checked if the name given was a synonym; if yes, we used the accepted name according to the GBIF backbone taxonomy; if no, we proceeded with the name given by the user. We removed the block of code because the GBIF API now essentially does this behind the scenes server side. See https://github.com/gbif/gbif-api for examples.

(#95)occ_search(), we now return a media slot in the output list by default.gbif_photos() to view media files (photos in the wild or of museum specimens). Two options are available, which='map' creates a single map which presents the image when the user clicks on the point, and which='table' in which a table has one row for each image, presenting the image and an interactive map with the single point.

(#92)camelCase from under_score style - changed accordingly in rgbif.plyr::compact() instead of importing from plyr.name_lookup() removed facet_only parameter as it doesn’t do anything - use limit=0 instead. Further, added two new slots of output: hierarchy and names (for common/vernacular names) (#96). The output can be determined by user via the return parameter.name_suggest(), if the field higherClassificationMap is selected to be returned via the fields parameter, a list is returned with a data frame, and a list of the hierarchies separately. If higherClassificationMap is not selected, only a data frame is returned.occ_search() gains new parameters mediatype and issue (#93), with detailed list of possible options for the issue parameter.

(#74)parameterName = c(x, y, z). These parameters are: taxonKey, scientificName, datasetKey, catalogNumber, collectorName, geometry, country, recordNumber, search, institutionCode, collectionCode, decimalLatitude, decimalLongitude, depth, year, typeStatus, lastInterpreted, and continent. This isn’t faceted search server side - this is just looping your different values of the parameter against the GBIF API.occ_search() now support range queries: decimalLatitude,decimalLongitude,depth,elevation,eventDate,lastInterpreted,month, and year. Do a range query for example by depth=50,100 to ask for occurrences where depth was recorded between 50 and 100 meters. Note that this syntax depth=c(50,100) will perform two separate searches, one for depth=50 and one for depth=100. (#71)DEPRECATED
