gbif.range 1.9.2

gbif.range 1.9.1

Added disk-based batch workflow for large multi-species GBIF exports: split_gbif_by_species(), species_csvs_to_ranges(), read_range_rds()
Added Collate field to DESCRIPTION for explicit R file load ordering
Added three focused workflow vignettes
Updated README.md with Vignettes section

Added area_data: bundled dataset of gbif.range- vs. IUCN-derived range area estimates, added alongside new examples mirroring the draft paper plots.
Updated test routine
Updated get_status()

Polished documentation and CI
Updated evaluation functions and examples
Added get_gbif_count(): estimate record volume before downloading
Changing functions name to: make_ecoreg(), get_ecoreg(), check_and_get_ecoreg()

Added evaluate_range(): validate range maps against independent distribution data (SDMs, IUCN polygons) with precision, sensitivity, specificity, and TSS
Added cv_range(): cross-validate a get_range() output against its own occurrence data using spatial or random folds
Added make_blocks(): split observations into balanced random or spatially structured folds for cross-validation workflows
Added area_data: bundled dataset of gbif.range- vs. IUCN-derived range area estimates for validation examples
Added internal helper functions (helpers.R) for argument checking and shared utilities across functions
Introduced formal R5 reference classes getRange and getGBIF (classes.R) to store function outputs with their original arguments
Added check_and_get_bioreg() and get_bioreg() as helpers for ecoregion download and caching

Added make_ecoregion(): build custom ecoregion layers from environmental rasters via k-means clustering
Moved dependencies from Depends to Imports for cleaner namespace handling.
Added sf and cluster as dependencies
Expanded get_range() with additional ecoregion flexibility and resolution control via the res argument

First stable release under the name gbif.range on GitHub
Full migration from raster to terra (SpatRaster/SpatVector compatibility)
Renamed get_taxonomy() to get_status(): added IUCN Red List status retrieval and infra-specific taxa (subspecies, varieties) lookup
Improved get_gbif() synonym handling and tiling robustness
Added read_ecoreg() and ecoreg_list for bundled ecoregion management

Renamed package from wsl.gbif to gbif.range
Same for function containing ‘wsl’: wsl_doi() to get_doi(), wsl_gbif() to get_gbif(), wsl_obs_filter() to obs_filter()
Added get_range(): ecoregion-constrained species range inference
Added conv_function(): internal polygon builder used by get_range()
Added get_taxonomy() (later renamed get_status()): GBIF backbone taxonomy inspection including accepted names and synonyms
Expanded get_gbif() with dynamic moving-window tiling for > 100,000 records and improved synonym-aware downloads
Added ClusterR, FNN, geometry, mclust, and rgeos as dependencies

First release under the name wsl.gbif() (October 2022), hosted on EnviDat (10.16904/envidat.352) and GitHub (https://github.com/8Ginette8/wsl.gbif)
Core functions: wsl_gbif() (occurrence download with synonym support), wsl_obs_filter() (grid-based occurrence thinning), wsl_taxonomy() (GBIF backbone taxonomy lookup), wsl_doi() (GBIF-derived DOI generation), make_tiles() (geographic tiling for rgbif)
Credential-free GBIF download with 13 post-processing filters via CoordinateCleaner
Dynamic moving-window tiling for datasets exceeding 100,000 observations.
