dwc-io

This is a simple clojura library for writing, accessing and reading darwincore occurrences.

Usage

Include in your project.clj

Clojars Project

Reading and Writing

dwc-A

(use 'dwc-io.archive)
(let [records (read-archive "url for dwc-a zip")]
  (comment "records is a vector of maps, with dwc-io fields as keywords keys"))

(read-archive-stream "url for dwc-a zip" 
 (fn [record]
  (comment "reads the archive as a stream")))

CSV

(use 'dwc-io.csv) 
(let [records (read-csv "path-to.csv")]
  (comment "records is a vector of maps, with dwc fields as keywords keys")))

(read-csv-stream "path-to.csv"
  (function [record]
    (comment "reads the csv as a stream")))

(spit "dwc-io.csv"
    (write-csv [{:scientificName "Aphelandra longiflora" } {:scientificName "Aphelandra espirito-santensis"}]))

JSON & GeoJSON

(use 'dwc-io.json) 
(let [records (read-json "path-to.json")]
  (comment "records is a vector of maps, with dwc fields as keywords keys")))

(read-json-stream "path-to.json"
  (function [record]
    (comment "reads the json as a stream")))

(use 'dwc-io.geojson) 
(let [records (read-geojson "path-to.xlsx")]
  (comment "records is a vector of maps, with dwc fields as keywords keys")))

(read-geojson-stream "path-to.xlsx"
  (function [record]
    (comment "reads the geojson as a stream")))

(comment "Support writing")
(spit "occs.gjson" (write-geojson [ {:decimalLatitude 10 :decimalLongitude 20 :scientificName "Vicia faba"} ]))
(spit "occs.json" (write-json [ {:decimalLatitude 10 :decimalLongitude 20 :scientificName "Vicia faba"} ]))

XLSX

(use 'dwc-io.xlsx) 
(let [records (read-xlsx "path-to.xlsx")]
  (comment "records is a vector of maps, with dwc fields as keywords keys")))

(read-xlsx-stream "path-to.xlsx"
  (function [record]
    (comment "reads the xlsx as a stream")))

(use 'clojure.java.io)
(copy
    (as-file (write-csv [{:scientificName "Aphelandra longiflora" } {:scientificName "Aphelandra espirito-santensis"}]))
    (as-file "./dwc.xlsx"))

GBIF Search API

(use 'dwc-io.gbif)
(let [opts {:filters {"Family" "BROMELIACEAE"} :limit 30} ; omit limit to loop until the end
      result (read-gbif opts)]
 (comment "all options are optional, any combination is valid")
 (comment "comes back as {:results [{recordhere}] :endOfRecords true :count 30 :offset 0 :limit 30}"))

GBIF specie lookup

(use 'dwc-io.gbif)
(def taxon (get-a-taxon "ACANTHACEAE"))
(def taxon (get-a-taxon "Aphelandra longiflora"))

GBIF download

(use 'dwc-io.gbif)
(def download-key (request-download {:user "username" :password "pasword" :email "username@email.com" :filters [[:FAMILY_KEY :equals 123]]}))
(def dwca-url (download-url download-key))

Tapir

(use 'dwc-io.tapir)
(let [opts {:fields ["ScientificName"] :filters {"Family" "BROMELIACEAE"} :start 10 :limit 30}
      records (read-tapir "url" opts)]
 (comment "all options are optional, any combination is valid")
 (comment "comes back as {:records [{recordhere}] :summary {:start 10 :next 30 :total 1000 :end false}}"))

Digir

(use 'dwc-io.digir)
(let [opts {:filters {"Family" "BROMELIACEAE"} :start 10 :limit 30}
      records (read-digir "url" opts)]
 (comment "all options are optional, any combination is valid")
 (comment "comes back as {:records [{recordhere}] :summary {:total 1000 :start 10 :limit 30 :end false}}"))

Applying common fixes

Fixes some common problems with occurrence records.

Current fixes:

  • normalize keys: ScientificName -> scientificName

  • decimal data into double values

  • empty and nul fields get removed

  • all non decimal fields as strings

  • generade occurrenceID from: id, globalUniqueIdentifier, instutition+catalog+number or generate an UUID

  • transform latitude into decimalLatitude (and longitude), if applicable, converting coordinates (radians2decimal)

  • transform verbatimLatitude into decimalLatitude (and longitude), if applicable, converting coordinates (radians2decimal)

  • remove non standart fields

  • trim spaces

  • normalize the use of the taxonomic fields (like scientificName = scientificNameWithoutAuthorship + scientificNameAuthorship, and the other way)

    (use 'dwc-io.fixes)

    (fix-id record) (comment "tries to generate an recordID, if not present, based on institution+collection+number")

    (fix-coords record) (Comment "trie to convert degree latitude longitude fields into decimalLatitude and decimalLongitude")

    (-fix-> record) (comment "apply all fixes, in single or vector of records")

Validation

This feature validate against the darwincore schema, which is mostly the presence of known only fields, but not their contents.

(use 'dwc-io.validation)

(validate record)
(comment "tries to validate record based on information of http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/")
