Access data from the global plant phenology data portal (PPO data portal) and phenology terms from the Plant Phenology Ontology (PPO)

Details

rppo enables users to query the global plant phenology data portal (PPO data portal). The PPO data portal is an aggregation of phenology data from several different data sources. Currently it contains USA-NPN, NEON, and PEP725 data sources. The PPO data portal harvests data using the ppo-data-pipeline, with code available at https://github.com/biocodellc/ppo-data-pipeline/. All phenological terms in the data portal are aligned using the Plant Phenology Ontology (PPO), available at https://github.com/PlantPhenoOntology/ppo.

Three main functions are contained in the rppo: ppo_terms allows users to discover present and absent phenological stages, ppo_data enables users to query the PPO data portal and ppo_traits use the data fetched from the PPO data portal and return the traits data for each eventID. The rppo package source code is available at https://github.com/ropensci/rppo/.
