I ‘R’ FlowCytobot (iRfcb): Tools for Managing Imaging FlowCytobot (IFCB) Data iRfcb website

R-CMD-check DOI Lifecycle: stable Codecov test coverage

Overview

The iRfcb R package offers a suite of tools for managing and performing quality control on plankton data generated by the Imaging FlowCytobot (IFCB). It streamlines the processing and analysis of IFCB data, facilitating the preparation of IFCB data and images for publication (e.g. in GBIF, OBIS, EMODNet, SHARK or EcoTaxa). It is especially useful for researchers using, or partly using, the MATLAB ifcb-analysis package.
