get_inat_obs_project {rinat}

Download observations or info from a project

Description

Retrieve observations from a particular iNaturalist project. This function can be used to get either observations or information from a project by project name or ID.

Usage

get_inat_obs_project(grpid, type = c("observations", "info"), raw = FALSE)

Arguments

grpid

Name of the group as an iNaturalist slug or group ID.

type

Character, either "observations" or "info". "observations" returns all observations, and "info" returns project details similar to what you can find on a project's page.

raw

Logical. If TRUE and searching for project info, returns the raw output of parsed JSON for that project. Otherwise just some basic information is returned as a list.

Details

An iNaturalist slug is usually the project name as a single string with words separated by hyphens. For instance, the project "World Oceans Week 2022" has a slug of "world-oceans-week-2022", which you can find by searching projects on iNaturalist and looking at the project's page's URL.
