Filter the eBird data by observer

Define a filter for the eBird Basic Dataset (EBD) based on a set of observer IDs This function only defines the filter and, once all filters have been defined, auk_filter() should be used to call AWK and perform the filtering.

Usage

auk_observer(x, observer_id)

Arguments

x

auk_ebd or auk_sampling object; reference to file created by auk_ebd() or auk_sampling().

observer_id

character or integer; observers to filter by. Observer IDs can be provided either as integer (e.g. 12345) or character with the "obsr" prefix as they appear in the EBD (e.g. "obsr12345").

Value

An auk_ebd or `auk_sampling“ object.
