7.1 - Data Downloads

image

 

Data Downloads is the section of the WildTrax website where you can export and download your processed and tagged data from projects. The format is a zip file that contains multiple csvs (up to a maximum of 10 projects at a time) with columns customized to each sensor type. 

 

Your accessibility to the projects within Data Downloads is dependent on your organization and project membership and the status of the project. As an administrator, this allows you to download data at any time to perform preliminary analyses. You can also authenticate into WildTrax using the wildRtrax package if you're an R user.

 

  • Downloading Data

     

    To download data from a project, login to WildTrax, go to the button and click . There are then three steps to follow to download the data: choose the sensor and then choose the projects.
