This function takes your independent detection data and summarises it by location, specified time interval, and species.

Usage

wt_summarise_cam(
  detect_data,
  raw_data,
  time_interval = "day",
  variable = "detections",
  output_format = "wide",
  species_col = species_common_name,
  effort_data = NULL,
  project_col = project_id,
  station_col = location,
  date_time_col = image_date_time,
  start_col = start_date,
  end_col = end_date,
  detection_id_col = detection,
  start_col_det = start_time
)

Arguments

detect_data

Detection data generated from wt_ind_det().

raw_data

The raw camera tag data, which is used to infer the effort (i.e. date ranges of operation) for each camera. Optionally, can supply effort_data directly instead.

time_interval

Character; Can be either "full", "month", "week", or "day" (default).

variable

Character; Can be either "detections" (default), "presence", "counts", or "all" (if you want all three).

output_format

Character; The format of the dataframe returned to you. Can be either "wide" (default) or "long".

species_col

Defaults to species_common_name. The column referring to species. Use to switch between common and scientific names of species, if you have both.

effort_data

Optionally supply your own effort data.

project_col

Defaults to project_id. The column referring to project in your effort data.

station_col

Defaults to location. The column referring to each individual camera station/location in your effort data.

date_time_col

Defaults to image_date_time. The column referring to image date-time stamp.

start_col

Defaults to start_date. The column indicating the start date of the camera location

end_col

Defaults to end_date. The column indicating the end date of the camera location

detection_id_col

Defaults to detection. The column indicating the detection id

start_col_det

Defaults to start_time. The column indicating the start time of the independent detections

Value

A dataframe summarising your camera data by location, time interval, and species.

Summarise camera data by location, time interval, and species.

Examples

if (FALSE) {
summary <- wt_summarise_cam(
