add number of individuals to output of `get_record_table` #279

Closed jimcasaer closed 1 year ago

jimcasaer commented 1 year ago

for some analyses, it would be great to have not only the scientific name of the observed species but also the number of individuals in the observation, as well as the age class and sex

these could be extra information in t he tibble data frame resulting from the get_record_table() and would avoid extra coding and merging afterwards

After meeting with @jimcasaer and @MartijnUH on Oct 23, decided to add only number of individuals to output of get_record_table(). Title of the issue has been updated.

Notice that the record table is something that we produce to mimick the record tables created in camtrapR package and to use as input of other camtrapR functions. This column is still not part of camtrapR and so we will ping the camtrapR's maintainer as we think it's worth having such column added.
