FloraWeb Plant Species Report via R

June 10, 2012

(This article was first published on theBioBucket*, and kindly contributed to R-bloggers)

For German-spoken users I added the function floraweb_scrape.R that allows you to conveniently collect species data and print to a PDF-file (see this example output). The function accesses data provided by the web-site FloraWeb.de (BfN - Bundesministerium für Naturschutz).
You can use it as an interactive version (RTclTk) which I have put to a Github repository HERE.
