Proof of concept

[maelle]

@sckott I've added a Rmd file in vignettes/ which uses either monkeylearn + opencage or geoparser, with abstracts of articles queried via fulltext and PLOS only.

A first example that could build upon your rgbif & literature access expertise would be:

• choosing a bunch of scientific names of species.

• finding abstracts and titles of articles with those scientific names as keywords, in databases chosen smartly (not what I did with my example, I chose PLOS because that was fulltext only).

• geolocating the articles with one of the workflows or both of them or a better version of any of them.

• comparing the results with rgbif results.

@masalmon sweet!

I like the examples you included!

And good ideas! Will have a try at one or more of those.
