Example camera trap station information table
data(camtraps)
A data frame with 3 rows and 7 variables
This is a general example of how information about camera trap stations are arranged in camtrapR. It contains setup and retrieval dates and coordinates. If more than 1 camera was set up at a station (e.g. 2 cameras facing each other), a camera ID column must be added, with camera-specific information instead of station-specific information. If cameras malfunctioned repeatedly, additional pairs of problem columns can be added, e.g. "Problem2_from" and "Problem2_to" etc..
The variables are as follows:
Station |
Camera trap station ID |
utm_y |
y coordinate of station (northing) |
utm_x |
x coordinate of station (easting) |
Setup_date |
camera trap setup date |
Retrieval_date |
camera trap retrieval date |
Problem1_from |
first day of camera malfunction |
Problem1_to |
last day of camera malfunction |
