It brings together several aspects of biodiversity
data-cleaning in one place. 'bdc' is organized in thematic modules
related to different biodiversity dimensions, including 1) Merge
datasets: standardization and integration of different datasets; 2)
Pre-filter: flagging and removal of invalid or non-interpretable
information, followed by data amendments; 3) Taxonomy: cleaning,
parsing, and harmonization of scientific names from several taxonomic
groups against taxonomic databases locally stored through the
application of exact and partial matching algorithms; 4) Space:
flagging of erroneous, suspect, and low-precision geographic
coordinates; and 5) Time: flagging and, whenever possible, correction
of inconsistent collection date. In addition, it contains
features to visualize, document, and report data quality – which is
essential for making data quality assessment transparent and
reproducible. The reference for the methodology is Bruno et al. (2022)
