Description

1.

Data Understanding

i. Read in Raster Layer (Lekagul Roadways Map)
- It is a single layer raster file. 200x200.
class : RasterLayer
dimensions : 200, 200, 40000 (nrow, ncol, ncell)
resolution : 1, 1 (x, y)
extent : 0, 200, 0, 200 (xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax)
coord. ref. : NA
names : Lekagul_Roadways_2018
values : 0, 255 (min, max)


ii. Find out structure of Raster Layer
Extent : 40000
CRS arguments : NA
File Size : 41078
Object Size : 14376 bytes
Layer : 1

2.

Data Cleaning

i. Import two CSV Files (Birds)

  • 2081 Training Birds (Metadata)
  • 15 Test Birds (Provided by Kasios)


ii. Fix Data Quality Issues

  • Change File ID from numeric to character
  • Change coordinates to numeric
  • Change Date from Character to Date
  • Omit the two NA values for the Y coordinate.
  • Clean the Dates (All standardise to m/d/y. For missing month/year, I will replace with NA. For missing day, I will impute as 1st day of the month.)
  • Clean the Timing (Standardise all to 24 hour formatting. Use “.” instead of ":")
