Reading and writing data

read_camtrapdp() now updates (or creates) the spatial, temporal and taxonomic scope in the metadata based on the data (#130, #164).
read_camtrapdp() now upgrades datasets to Camtrap DP 1.0.1. The internal function convert() has been renamed to upgrade() (#113).
New write_camtrapdp() writes a Camera Trap Data Package to disk as a datapackage.json and CSV files (#137). This means you can now read, update and write Camtrap DP datasets.

filter_deployments() and deployments()<- now update the spatial, temporal and taxonomic scope in the metadata based on the returned data (#100, #132).
filter_observations(), filter_media(), media()<- and observations()<- now update the taxonomic scope in the metadata based on the returned data (#89, #100, #130).

write_dwc() now adds identificationVerificationStatus for observations classified by humans with 100% certainty (#158).
write_dwc() now allows to create occurrences from media-based observations (#172).
New write_eml() transforms Camtrap DP metadata to EML (#99). This function is used by GBIF to create metadata for a dataset page.
New merge_camtrapdp() allows to merge two datasets (#112). This can be useful to combine data from multiple studies.
New round_coordinates() allows to fuzzy/generalize location information by rounding deployment latitude and longitude. It also updates coordinateUncertainty in the deployments and coordinatePrecision and spatial scope in the metadata (#106).
New shift_time() allows to shift/correct date-times in data and metadata for specified deploymentIDs and duration (#108).
New update_taxon() allows to update taxonomic information in data and metadata (#159).

New function print() prints a human-readable summary of the Camera Trap Data Package (#8).
Fix fieldsEnclosedBy issue in meta.xml, so GBIF occurrence processing correctly handles commas in fields (#95).
Fix CRAN note (#94).

First release on CRAN. 🎉
write_dwc() no longer writes to "." by default, since this is not allowed by CRAN policies. The user needs to explicitly define a directory (#79).
