make_info.RdThis function allows the user to generate a "skeleton" info structure for a tag deployment, with some common pieces of metadata filled in. Additional information can then be added manually or using a custom script before saving this info as part of a netCDF file.
make_info(depid, tagtype, species, owner)
| depid | Deployment id string for this tag record |
|---|---|
| tagtype | String identifying the tag type, for example 'dtag', 'cats', 'mk10', ... |
| species | (optional) 2-letter string with the first letters of the species binomial |
| owner | (optional) String with initials of the tag data owner |
A list containing metadata for a tag deployment. It's recommended to name this output "info" and save it as part of a netCDF tag data archive file (along with the tag sensor data).
if (FALSE) { info <- make_info("zc19_365a", "dtag", "zc", "sdr") }
