lemis 1.1.0

This data release has the same temporal scope as the v1.0.0 data (2000-2014) but with minor revisions (mainly related to taxonomy calling) resulting from peer review feedback.

lemis 1.0.0

This is the first version of the lemis data intended for public release. Changes include:

  • Taxonomic data overhaul, with major efforts to clean existing taxonomic names and the addition of class-level information using the taxadb package
  • Significant updates to the data cleaning workflow generally, including the filtering of apparent duplicate records
  • In previous data versions, control_number 2006798504 was problematic as it contained multiple records erroneously embedded within a single data field. This issue has been resolved

lemis 0.2.0

This is the first update to the lemis package. Changes include:

  • Addition of data from late 2013 and all of 2014
  • A major reorganization of lemis data processing. Briefly, all data importation and cleaning steps are now automated with scripts located in the data-raw/ subdirectory. While this should be mostly irrelevant to the end user, it means that all data processing code is now fully contained within the lemis package repository. This should make it easier to incorporate future data into the pipeline
  • Improved error handling for non-standard data values. Previously, some records with non-standard values in specific fields were dropped from the data. Now the lemis cleaning workflow incorporates error checking for non-standard values across all the fields of data for which valid values are described in USFWS spreadsheets. Non-standard values are converted to non-standard value (as opposed to being converted to NA or dropped) and a cleaning_notes column has been added to describe the original value
  • Note that data versions from previous releases can still be had with lemis_data("0.1.0")

Bug fixes

  • Browsable tables in HTML should now work under systems with all pandoc versions

Minor changes

  • Reduced dependencies by removing tidyverse package
  • Updated test infrastructure to R 3.5.1

lemis 0.1.0

  • Initial pre-release version of the lemis data
