How to deal with media-based observations in exploratory functions #332

Description

@damianooldoni

All exploratory functions we wrote have been written when camtrapDP was dealing with event-based observations only.

Now that we can have both media-based and event-based observations (camtrap DP v1.0), the question arises about how to deal with them while applying observations related exploratory functions (get_n_obs(), get_n_individuals(), get_rai(), ...).

Let's check each of three possible situations: event-based obs only, media-based only and mixed event and media based obs.

Event-based obs only

Everything as usual. No messages returned.

Media-based obs only

Need to throw a warning in this case? Probably yes. Because we can calculate a RAI based on number of media-based observations, but does it make any sense?

Both media-based and event-based obs

My idea is to throw an error in this situation as I do not see any use case where those observations need to be considered together.

(super)users @jimcasaer, @MartijnUH, codevelopers @peterdesmet, @sannegovaert and @PietrH: any thought?
