surveyPaths {locaR}R Documentation

Get paths for standardized survey workflow.

Description

Function that takes arguments of a base folder and a project name, date, time, and run, and returns the appropriate filepaths for a standardized survey workflow.

Usage

surveyPaths(folder, projectName, date, time, run)

Arguments

folder

Character. Path to the directory where the survey is to be created.

projectName

Character. A string specifying the name of a project.

date

Numeric. Eight digit number representing a date in the format YYYYMMDD.

time

Numeric. Five or six digit number representing the start time of a recording session (90000 = 09:00:00, and 160000 = 16:00:00).

run

Numeric. Within each survey, start with run = 1, then count upwards. So, run 2 would be used to re-localize sounds that were poorly localized in run 1, etc. Running them again with slightly different settings (e.g. start/end times or low/high frequencies) can improve results.

Value

Named vector of paths to surveyFolder, runFolder, specFolder, locFolder, detectionsFile, channelsFile, and settingsFile.

Examples

    surveyPaths(folder = tempdir(), projectName = 'Ex', date = '20200617', time = '090000', run = 1)
