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.
