Neotoma-API

This repository is a placeholder for the actual Neotoma API. It is intended as a secondary reference and a location for tracking bugs & issues through the issue tracker. Users of the API without a GitHub account can also use the Google Webform.

Documentation

Full API documentation is available from the Neotoma API website.

The following resources are currently available:

  • sites - Information about data collection locations including name, geographic coordinates, and description.
  • datasets - Information about sets of samples of particular data types from site collection units.
  • downloads - Complete packaged datasets including the detailed sample data.
  • SampleData - Discrete taxon/taxa occurrences in time and space useful for performing statistical analysis and creating data plots.
  • Taxa - Descriptions of all taxa in the database. Most taxa are biological taxa; however, some are biometric measures (e.g. pollen grain diameter) and some are physical parameters (e.g. organic matter).
