Parsing PDF table to CSV

The data for this reference is formatted as an image-based table inside a PDF across multiple sheets. First, we use pdf_to_table to OCR and parse out the table to a CSV.

#conda environment
condaenv <- "mwhs-data-mobilization"

# Path to the Python script
script <- paste(path_to_project_root, "scripts_data/pdf_to_tables/pdf_to_table.py", sep="/")

# Input PDF file path
input_pdf <- paste(path_to_project_root, "datasets", site_dir_name, dataset_dir_name, "raw", original_pdf, sep="/")

# Output directory for OCR/table files

Read source data

Now we’ll read in the csv table outputted from the previous step

processed_csv <- "Fish_communities_of_subtropical_seagrass_meadows_a_tables_parsed_1.csv"

input_data <- read.csv(paste(path_to_project_root, "datasets", site_dir_name, dataset_dir_name, "processed", processed_csv, sep="/"))

#to preview pretty table
knitr::kable(head(input_data))

Scientific.name
Apogonidae
Apogon rueppellii
Carangidae
Selaroides leptolepis
Carcharhinidae
Carcharhinus amblyrhychos

Preprocessing

Here we tidy the data up, since OCR and table parsing errors are common and only take the list of species, since this is a checklist.

Tidy Data

input_data %<>%
  remove_empty(c("rows", "cols")) %>%       # Remove empty rows and columns
  clean_names()

# Remove lines with only one word
cleaned_data <- input_data %>%
  filter(str_count(scientific_name, "\\S+") > 1)

#add unidentified family back in
cleaned_data[31,] = "Congridae"

#to preview pretty table
knitr::kable(head(cleaned_data))

Selaroides leptolepis
Carcharhinus amblyrhychos
Psammoperca waigiensis
Chelmon marginalis
Gerres subfasciatus

Get WoRMS IDs

Auto matching

First we will try to do this automatically by first cleaning the species names using gnparser and then using the taxise library to call the WoRMS database.

#Parse author names out
parsed_names <- rgnparser::gn_parse(cleaned_data[,])

#Function to get WoRMS IDs. Search for accepted names first and if not found, search for unaccepted. If still not found, use the worrms package to search.
get_worms_id_from_element <- function(element) {
  worms_id <- get_wormsid(element$canonical$full, searchtype="scientific", fuzzy=TRUE, messages = FALSE, accepted = TRUE)
  if (attr(worms_id, "match") == "not found") {
    worms_id <- get_wormsid(element$canonical$full, searchtype="scientific", messages = FALSE, fuzzy=TRUE)
    if (attr(worms_id, "match") == "not found") {
      worms_id <- NA
    }
  }
  return(worms_id)
}

#Call the function
worms_ids <- lapply(parsed_names, function(element) {
  if (element$parsed) {
    return(get_worms_id_from_element(element))
  } else {
    return(NA)
  }
})

#combine original names, parsed data and WoRMS ID into one data frame
combined_dataframe <- data.frame()

for (i in 1:nrow(cleaned_data)) {
  cleaned_value <- cleaned_data[i,]
  canonical_value <- parsed_names[[i]]$canonical$full
  worms_id_value <- worms_ids[[i]][1]
  if (is.null(canonical_value)){
    canonical_value <- NA
  }
  temp_row <- data.frame(CleanedData = cleaned_value, CanonicalFull = canonical_value, WormsIDs = worms_id_value)
  combined_dataframe <- rbind(combined_dataframe, temp_row)
}

knitr::kable(head(combined_dataframe))

CleanedData	CanonicalFull	WormsIDs
Apogon rueppellii	Apogon rueppellii	273091
Selaroides leptolepis	Selaroides leptolepis	282745
Carcharhinus amblyrhychos	Carcharhinus amblyrhychos	NA
Psammoperca waigiensis	Psammoperca waigiensis	282395
Chelmon marginalis	Chelmon marginalis	278682
Gerres subfasciatus	Gerres subfasciatus	276969

Human Verification

Sometimes there are misspellings in the original text or incorrect OCR that can be searched for and fixed by hand. To do this, view the combined dataframe, search for unmatched species in WoRMS and add the ID, and remove rows that were not autoremoved in the earlier cleaning steps

combined_dataframe[3,2:3] = c("Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos", 217337)
combined_dataframe[8,2:3] = c("Chiloscyllium punctatum", 277833)

Darwin Core mapping

Required Terms

OBIS currently has eight required DwC terms: scientificName, scientificNameID, occurrenceID, eventDate, decimalLongitude, decimalLatitude, occurrenceStatus, basisOfRecord.

scientificName/scientificNameID

Create a dataframe with unique taxa only (though this should already be unique). This will be our primary DarwinCore data frame.

#rename and restructure WoRMSIDs to OBIS requirements
occurrence <- combined_dataframe %>%
  distinct(CanonicalFull, WormsIDs) %>%
  rename(scientificName = CanonicalFull) %>%
  rename(scientificNameID = WormsIDs) %>%
  mutate(scientificNameID = ifelse(!is.na(scientificNameID), paste("urn:lsid:marinespecies.org:taxname:", scientificNameID, sep = ""), NA))

occurrenceID

OccurrenceID is an identifier for the occurrence record and should be persistent and globally unique. It is a combination of dataset-shortname:occurrence: and a hash based on the scientific name.

# Vectorize the digest function (The digest() function isn't vectorized. So if you pass in a vector, you get one value for the whole vector rather than a digest for each element of the vector):
vdigest <- Vectorize(digest)

# Generate taxonID:
occurrence %<>% mutate(occurrenceID = paste(short_name, "occurrence", vdigest (scientificName, algo="md5"), sep=":"))

eventDate

This is NULL since this is technically a checklist and we do not know the collection date.

eventDate <- ""
occurrence %<>% mutate(eventDate)

decimalLongitude/decimalLatitude

Use obistools::calculate_centroid to calculate a centroid and radius for WKT strings. This is useful for populating decimalLongitude, decimalLatitude and coordinateUncertaintyInMeters. The WKT strings are from https://github.com/iobis/mwhs-shapes.

Check data

Use the check_fields command from obistools to check if all OBIS required fields are present in an occurrence table and if any values are missing.

#Reorganize columns
occurrence = occurrence %>% select(occurrenceID, scientificName, scientificNameID, eventDate, country, locality, decimalLatitude, decimalLongitude, coordinateUncertaintyInMeters, footprintWKT, geodeticDatum, occurrenceStatus, basisOfRecord)

#Check fields
check_fields(occurrence)

#Abstract
abstract <- eml$abstract(
  para = "Seagrass habitats support some of the most productive marine communities and provide critical habitat for many fish species. Previous studies have shown that fish communities of seagrass meadows are usually more diverse than those of adjacent habitats. However, most studies have been conducted in very shallow waters and generally have used seining methods to collect fish, which tend to select for slower species as well as small species and size classes. Antillean–Z style fish traps were used to study the fish communities of seagrass and associated habitats in both deep and shallow waters of Shark Bay, Western Australia. While more individuals were caught per trap in vegetated than in unvegetated habitats, the number of species and biomass was influenced by an interaction of depth and seagrass cover. The structure of fish communities was influenced by an interaction among season, seagrass cover, and depth. Unlike previous studies, a small number of species dominated fish trap catches, most notably, striped trumpeters, Pelates sexlineatus Quoy and Gaimard, 1925 and western butterfish, Pentapodus vitta Quoy and Gaimard, 1824. The factors that influenced the abundance of common species, including season, depth, and seagrass cover, often interacted and varied among species. This study suggests that future research on fish communities of seagrass ecosystems would benefit from using several sampling techniques and considering multiple environmental factors simultaneously."

Additional Metadata

Here we add the additionalMetadata element, which is required for a GBIF-type EML file and contains information such as the citation of the dataset, the citation of the original resource and the creation timestamp of the EML.

#{dataset.authors} ({dataset.pubDate}) {dataset.title}. [Version {dataset.version}]. {organization.title}. {dataset.type} Dataset {dataset.doi}, {dataset.url}

additionalMetadata <- eml$additionalMetadata(
  metadata = list(
    gbif = list(
      dateStamp = paste0(format(Sys.time(), "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%OS3"), paste0(substr(format(Sys.time(), "%z"), 1, 3), ":", paste0(substr(format(Sys.time(), "%z"), 4, 5)))),

Coverage

Here we describe the dataset’s geographic, taxonomic and temporal coverage.

#Coverage
coverage <- eml$coverage(

Extra MetaData

These fields are not required, though they make the metadata more complete.

Create meta.xml file

This is a file which describes the archive and data file structure and is required in a DarwinCore-Archive. It is based on the template file “meta_occurrence_checklist_template.xml”

meta_template <- paste(path_to_project_root, "scripts_data/meta_occurrence_checklist_template.xml", sep="/")
meta <- read_xml(meta_template)

fields <- xml_find_all(meta, "//d1:field")

for (field in fields) {
  term <- xml_attr(field, "term")
  if (term == "http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/eventDate") {
    xml_set_attr(field, "default", eventDate)
  } else if (term == "http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/country") {
    xml_set_attr(field, "default", country)
  } else if (term == "http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/locality") {
    xml_set_attr(field, "default", locality)
  } else if (term == "http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/decimalLatitude") {
    xml_set_attr(field, "default", localities$decimalLatitude)

Save outputs

dwc_output_dir <- paste(path_to_project_root, "output", site_dir_name, dataset_dir_name, sep="/")

write.csv(occurrence, paste(dwc_output_dir, "/occurrence.csv", sep = ""), na = "", row.names=FALSE)
write_xml(meta, file = paste(dwc_output_dir, "/meta.xml", sep = ""))
write_eml(my_eml, paste(dwc_output_dir, "/eml.xml", sep = ""))

Edit EML

We have to further edit the eml file to conform to GBIF-specific requirements that cannot be included in the original EML construction. This includes changing the schemaLocation and rearranging the GBIF element, since the construction automatically arranges the children nodes to alphabetical order.

#edit the schemaLocation and rearrange gbif node for gbif specific eml file
eml_content <- read_xml(paste(dwc_output_dir, "/eml.xml", sep = ""))

#change schemaLocation attributes for GBIF
root_node <- xml_root(eml_content)
xml_set_attr(root_node, "xsi:schemaLocation", "https://eml.ecoinformatics.org/eml-2.1.1 http://rs.gbif.org/schema/eml-gbif-profile/1.2/eml.xsd")
xml_set_attr(root_node, "xmlns:dc", "http://purl.org/dc/terms/")
xml_set_attr(root_node, "xmlns:stmml", NULL)
xml_set_attr(root_node, "xml:lang", "eng")


#rearrange children nodes under the GBIF element
hierarchyLevel <- eml_content %>% xml_find_all(".//hierarchyLevel")
dateStamp <- eml_content %>% xml_find_all(".//dateStamp")
citation <- eml_content %>% xml_find_all("./additionalMetadata/metadata/gbif/citation")
bibcitation <- eml_content %>% xml_find_all("./additionalMetadata/metadata/gbif/bibliography/citation")
xml_set_attr(bibcitation, "identifier", citationdoi)

eml_content %>% xml_find_all(".//hierarchyLevel") %>% xml_remove()
eml_content %>% xml_find_all(".//dateStamp") %>% xml_remove()
eml_content %>% xml_find_all("./additionalMetadata/metadata/gbif/citation") %>% xml_remove()
eml_content %>% xml_find_all(".//gbif") %>% xml_add_child(citation, .where=0)
eml_content %>% xml_find_all(".//gbif") %>% xml_add_child(hierarchyLevel, .where=0)
eml_content %>% xml_find_all(".//gbif") %>% xml_add_child(dateStamp, .where=0)

write_xml(eml_content, paste(dwc_output_dir, "/eml.xml", sep = ""))

Zip files to DwC-A

output_zip <- paste(dwc_output_dir, "DwC-A.zip", sep="/")

if (file.exists(output_zip)) {
  unlink(output_zip)
}

file_paths <- list.files(dwc_output_dir, full.names = TRUE)
zip(zipfile = output_zip, files = file_paths, mode = "cherry-pick")

if (file.exists(output_zip)) {
  unlink(file_paths)
}
