# disdat

## Data for Evaluating Species Distribution Modelling Methods

This package consists of a collection of datasets that can be used to compare species distribution models. There are data for 6 regions in the world, for a total of 226 anonymised species including birds, vascular plants, reptiles and bats. Each data set has presence-only (and optionally background) training data to build models, and presence/absence data to evaluate models.

## Installation

The package is [available from CRAN](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/disdat/index.html). You can install it with `install.packages("disdat")`.

To install the github development version, you can use the `remotes` package like this

```
library(remotes)
remotes::install_github("rspatial/disdat")
```
