If anyone is interested in visualizing their iNat data, I’m currently making a repository on GitHub that will be full of code for producing some cool graphics done with R. Also, if you have any suggestions for a visualization I don’t have yet in the repo or if you don’t know how to use R, dm me and …

i’m actually not an R person, but there are plenty of folks who have mentioned making things for iNat for and related to R (feel free to add to this wiki post, if you like): [image] iNaturalist Visualization: What introduced species are in my place? Since you all were as excited about my last vi…

@mikeakresh , check this out! Have you ever used iNat data for visualization using R?

rinat has been updated 3 months ago.

it may be updated, but as far as i can tell, it still hits the deprecated iNat API. is there any reason to use rinat for new development rather than hitting the current /v1 API directly or using some other wrapper package that hits the /v1 API? (just for example, rOpenSci also provides the spocc pac…
