)

Arguments

`taxon_name`	Character string corresponding to the taxonomic group of interest.
`complete_taxon`	logical stating you want to retrieve checklists that only contain the exhaustive list of the `taxon_name` argument or as well incomplete lists.
`floristic_group`	Character among the following options: `all`, `native`, `endemic`, `naturalized`.
`complete_floristic`	logical stating you want to retrieve checklists that only contain the exhaustive list of the `floristic_group` argument or as well incomplete lists.
`geo_type`	Character string, either `Mainland`, `Island` or `All`. `Island` gets you to Island, Island Group & Island Part. `Mainland` gets you to Mainland & Island/Mainland. `All` gets you all types.
`ref_excluded`	A vector listing potential ref_IDs that shall be ignored when assembling the set of regions and checklists fulfilling the given criteria. Checklists from these references will not be returned. NULL by default.
`suit_geo`	logical indicating whether only regions classified as suit_geo should be considered (see details).
`shp`	Shapefile provided by the user.
`coordinates`	Custom set of coordinates. The format is a two columns data.frame, the first one being longitudes and the second being latitudes of the vertices of a polygon. If the data.frame only includes two rows, the function assumes that the values are the four limits (min and max. longitude and latitude) of a bounding box.
`overlap`	A character string defining the criteria to use in order to retrieve checklists. Available options are `centroid_inside`, `extent_intersect`, `shape_intersect` and `shape_inside`. For example, `extent_intersect` means that every polygon from GIFT for which the extent intersects the provided shape/coordinates will be retrieved.
`remove_overlap`	a logical stating whether you want to retrieve checklists that overlap or not.
`area_threshold_island`	A number stating from which surface the smallest overlapping polygon is kept. By default set to 0 square kilometer (meaning that by default the smallest islands will be conserved).
`area_threshold_mainland`	When two polygons overlap, the smallest or the biggest one can be kept. When the surface of the smallest polygon exceeds this number, the smallest polygon is kept. Otherwise, we keep the bigger one. Set by default 100 square-kilometers.
`overlap_threshold`	A number ranging from 0 to 1, indicating at what percentage of overlap, partially overlapping polygons should be kept.
`by_ref_ID`	logical indicating whether the removal of overlapping regions shall be applied by ref_ID only. Note that regions overlapping with other regions from the same resource will be removed even if there are other references available for those regions.
`taxonomic_group`	logical. When set to `TRUE`, two additional columns (family and tax_group) are available in the checklists.
`namesmatched`	logical. `FALSE` by default, set to `TRUE` if you want the original species name as they came in the references as well as details on the taxonomic harmonization.
`list_set_only`	logical stating whether you only want the metadata or if you also want to retrieve the species lists.
`GIFT_version`	character string defining the version of the GIFT database to use. The function retrieves by default the `latest` stable version. If set to `beta`, the most up-to-date version which is still subject to changes and edits is used.
`api`	character string defining from which API the data will be retrieved.

Details

Here is the detail of each data.frame and their columns:

ref_ID - Identification number of each reference.
type- What type the source is.
subset- What information regarding the status of species is available.
native_indicated- Whether native status of species is available in the source.
natural_indicated - Whether naturalized status of species is available in the source.
end_ref - Whether endemism information is available in the source.
restricted - Whether the access to this reference is restricted.
taxon_ID- Identification number of species.
list_ID - Identification number of each list.
end_list - Whether endemism information is available in the list.
entity_ID- Identification number of the polygon of the list.
geo_entity - Name of the location.
suit_geo - Is the polygon suitable.
entity_class - Type of polygon.
entity_type - Name of the location.
taxon_name - Name of the group of taxa available.

For the second data frame with the species, each column refers to:

ref_ID - Identification number of each reference.
list_ID - Identification number of each list
work_ID - Identification number of each species name, after taxonomic harmonization.
genus_ID - Identification number of each genus, after taxonomic harmonization.
species - Species name, after taxonomic harmonization.
questionable - Whether the species occurrence is questionable.
native - Whether the species is native.
quest_native - Whether the native information is questionable.
naturalized - Whether the species is naturalized.
endemic_ref - Whether the species is endemic within the reference.
quest_end_ref - Whether the endemic_ref information is questionable.
endemic_list - Whether the species is endemic within the list.
quest_end_list - Whether the endemic_list information is questionable.
cons_status - Conservation status of the species.
family - Family of the species.
tax_group - Taxonomic group of the species.

While the arguments taxon_name in combination with complete_taxon = TRUE and floristic_group in combination with complete_floristic = TRUE make sure to only get back checklists for regions for which GIFT has lists aiming at covering both the entire taxonomic group and floristic subset (for example native vascular plants), it does not mean that the checklists are complete (include all species). We therefore flagged regions in GIFT for which the combination of all checklists is obviously incomplete as suit_geo = 0. This has however only been done only for native angiosperms and the assessment has been subjective. Set suit_geo = TRUE if you only want to consider regions classified as suit_geo.

Value

List with two data frames: the checklist with species and the list of ID.

Taxonomic and trait coverage per geographic region and taxonomic group in GIFT

Description

Retrieve taxonomic or trait coverage (for a given trait) of all species, native species, naturalized species and endemic species per taxonomic group and geographic region combination. This function works with taxonomic groups above the genus level.

Usage

GIFT_coverage(
  what = "taxonomic_coverage",
  taxon_name = "Embryophyta",
  trait_ID = "1.1.1",
  GIFT_version = "latest",
  api = "https://gift.uni-goettingen.de/api/extended/"
)
GIFT_coverage(
  what = "taxonomic_coverage",
  taxon_name = "Embryophyta",
  trait_ID = "1.1.1",
  GIFT_version = "latest",
  api = "https://gift.uni-goettingen.de/api/extended/"
)

Arguments

`what`	character indicating whether `taxonomic_coverage` or `trait_coverage` shall be retrieved.
`taxon_name`	Name of the taxonomic group you want to retrieve coverage for. See `GIFT_taxonomy()` for options. The function accepts family names and higher taxonomic groups.
`trait_ID`	Identification number of the trait you want to retrieve coverage for. See `GIFT_traits_meta()` for details.
`GIFT_version`	character string defining the version of the GIFT database to use. The function retrieves by default the `latest` stable version. If set to `beta`, the most up-to-date version which is still subject to changes and edits is used.
`api`	character string defining from which API the data will be retrieved.

Details

The output has 9 columns:

entity_ID - Identification number of GIFT polygons
total - taxonomic or trait coverage for all species
total_rst - taxonomic or coverage for all species considering restricted resources
native - taxonomic or trait coverage for native species
native_rst - taxonomic or trait coverage for native species considering restricted resources
naturalized - taxonomic or trait coverage for naturalized species
naturalized_rst - taxonomic or trait coverage for naturalized species considering restricted resources
endemic_min - taxonomic or trait coverage for endemic species
endemic_min_rst - taxonomic or trait coverage for endemic species considering restricted resources

In the case of taxonomic coverage, a '1' means that species composition data is available for the given combination of taxonomic group and geographic region while 'NA' means that no data is available. This can differ depending on whether restricted data in GIFT is considered or not (columns with or without _rst at the end).

In the case of trait coverage, the proportion of species of a given taxonomic group with information on the defined trait is reported per geographic region.

Value

A data frame with either taxonomic or trait coverage per GIFT polygon.

Environmental data for GIFT checklists

Description

Retrieve environmental data associated to each GIFT checklists. Sources of environmental variables can come from raster layers or from shape files (miscellaneous). Users need to define what variables they are interested in and then ask for a set of summary statistics (in case of raster layers).

Usage

GIFT_env(
  entity_ID = NULL,
  miscellaneous = if (is.null(rasterlayer)) "area" else NULL,
  rasterlayer = NULL,
  sumstat = "mean",
  GIFT_version = "latest",
  api = "https://gift.uni-goettingen.de/api/extended/"
)
GIFT_env(
  entity_ID = NULL,
  miscellaneous = if (is.null(rasterlayer)) "area" else NULL,
  rasterlayer = NULL,
  sumstat = "mean",
  GIFT_version = "latest",
  api = "https://gift.uni-goettingen.de/api/extended/"
)

Arguments

`entity_ID`	A vector defining the ID of the lists to retrieve. `NULL` by default, in that case, every list from GIFT is retrieved.
`miscellaneous`	character vector or list specifying the miscellaneous data to retrieve. . A list of all miscellaneous layers for which precomputed information exists in the database can be viewed in the output table returned by `GIFT_env_meta_misc()`.
`rasterlayer`	character vector or list specifying the raster data to retrieve. A list of all raster layers for which precomputed information exists in the database can be viewed in the output table returned by `GIFT_env_meta_raster()`.
`sumstat`	Vector or list indicating the desired summary statistics out of `c("min", "q05", "q10", "q20", "q25", "q30", "q40", "med", "q60", "q70", "q75", "q80", "q90", "q95", "max", "mean", "sd", "modal", "unique_n", "H", "n")` used to aggregate the information coming from the raster layers. If `sumstat` is a vector, the same summary statistics are used for all raster layers. If `sumstat` is a list, the first element defines the summary statistics for the first raster layer, the second for the second and so on. Important note Some summary statistics may not be informative depending on the environmental layer you ask for. For example, it is not relevant to retrieve the mean of soil classes for a polygon. The mode or Shannon index are more suitable in that case.
`GIFT_version`	character string defining the version of the GIFT database to use. The function retrieves by default the `latest` stable version. If set to `beta`, the most up-to-date version which is still subject to changes and edits is used.
`api`	character string defining from which API the data will be retrieved.

Details

The columns of the data.frame are the following:

entity_ID - Identification number of the polygon
geo_entity - Name of the polygon
The other columns relate to the environmental variables the user asked for.

Value

A data frame with the environmental values per polygon (entity_ID).

  aggregation = FALSE,
  GIFT_version = "latest",
  api = "https://gift.uni-goettingen.de/api/extended/"
)

Arguments

`genus`	Character string corresponding to the genus of the species of interest.
`epithet`	Character string corresponding to the epithet of the species of interest.
`namesmatched`	Logical `FALSE` by default, set to TRUE if you want to look for the species not only in the standardized species names but also in the original species names as they came in the original resources.
`remove_overlap`	a logical stating whether you want to retrieve checklists that overlap or not. `FALSE` by default.
`area_th_island`	A number stating from which surface the smallest overlapping polygon is kept. By default set to 0 square kilometer (meaning that by default the smallest islands will be conserved).
`area_th_mainland`	When two polygons overlap, the smallest or the biggest one can be kept. When the surface of the smallest polygon exceeds this number, the smallest polygon is kept. Otherwise, we keep the bigger one. Set by default 100 square-kilometers.
`overlap_th`	A number ranging from 0 to 1, indicating at what percentage of overlap, partially overlapping polygons should be kept.
`by_ref_ID`	logical indicating whether the removal of overlapping regions shall be applied by ref_ID only. Note that regions overlapping with other regions from the same resource will be removed even if there are other references available for those regions.
`aggregation`	A logical stating whether you want to aggregate in a simpler way the floristic status of species per entity_ID. For example, two lists associated to the same entity_ID could describe a species both as native and non-native. In that case, the aggregation would consider the species to be native. Reverse for naturalized and alien.
`GIFT_version`	character string defining the version of the GIFT database to use. The function retrieves by default the `latest` stable version. If set to `beta`, the most up-to-date version which is still subject to changes and edits is used.
`api`	character string defining from which API the data will be retrieved.
