TerraDactyl v1.0 software archive

TerraDactyl allows for the extraction of map layer data, currently curated by Google Earth Engine (GEE), at a set of point in space and time. It has been developed in tandem with eDNAExplorer.org as a means of automatically associated biodiversity data, derived from environmental DNA, with environmental conditions associated with each sample. However, these extracted environmental data can be associated with other types of data collected, not just biodiversity measurements.

TerraDactyl 允许从由 Google Earth Engine（GEE）编目的一组时空点中提取地图层数据。该工具与 eDNAExplorer.org 合作开发，旨在实现从环境 DNA 中提取的生物多样性数据与环境样本相关联的环境条件数据的自动关联。然而，这些提取的环境数据可以与其他类型收集的数据相关联，而不仅仅是生物多样性测量数据。
