wiutils 1.0.1

Exploration utilities for Wildlife Insights projects.

wiutils

wiutils has several utilities for exploring and manipulating (filtering, plotting and summarizing) information from Wildlife Insights projects. These functions are useful to compute basic statistics, prepare the information for further analysis (e.g. occupancy models) and translate it into other standards (i.e. Darwin Core) that facilitate its publication on biodiversity information centers (e.g. GBIF).

Using pip:

pip install wiutils

Using conda:

conda install -c conda-forge wiutils

Execution
