Summarize REFLORA collections

Here in this article, we show how to use the package’s function reflora_summary for summarizing information about all REFLORA-associated collections.

Summarize all collections

The following code can be used to extract a summary of all REFLORA-associated collections, including herbarium acronym, curator’s email contact, number of records and a direct link to the original REFLORA Integrated Publishing Toolkit (IPT).

summary_df <- reflora_summary(verbose = TRUE,
                              save = TRUE,
                              dir = "reflora_summary")

Summarize specific collections

By specifying a vector of herbarium acronyms, the user can extract a summary for just the specific herbarium collection.

summary_some_df <- reflora_summary(herbarium = c("ALCB", "RB", "HUEFS", "US", "K"),
                                   verbose = TRUE,
                                   save = TRUE,
                                   dir = "reflora_summary")
