movebank-api-doc's Issues

animal-nickname not listed in documentation

@sarahcd Not sure if this is the right place to log data upload issues, but I wanted to document it none the less.

I noticed that one can populate the metadata field Nickname. Indeed, if you include the field animal-nickname in a metadata csv upload, it is automatically recognized.

The term however is not documented in https://www.movebank.org/node/2381 or the Movebank reference data template.

Documentation inconsistencies

I was looking at the documentation and the attributes document (https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?attributes). There I see an option for entity-type=event_reduced This does not seems to be part of the documentation here. What are the options there? What is returned?

Furthermore in the documentation here I see the option to use a start and end time for event (https://github.com/movebank/movebank-api-doc/blob/master/movebank-api.md#get-event-data-for-a-specified-time-period). This filtering is not documented in the attribute document.

variation in tag_type reported

I just noticed sometimes the external_id of a tag_type is reported and sometimes the name (for future references it might be nice to have this consistent):

> getMovebank('study',id=2911040, login=l)$sensor_type_ids
[1] "GPS,Acceleration"
> getMovebank('tag',`study_id`=2911040, login=l)$sensor_type_ids
 [1] "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps"
 [7] "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps"
[13] "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps"
[19] "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps"
[25] "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps" "acceleration,gps"

Retrieving only study name throws an error

Hi, I encounted this case:

curl -v -u bart:** 'https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity_type=study&study_id=2911040&attributes=name,id'
curl -v -u bart:** 'https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity_type=study&study_id=2911040&attributes=name'
curl -v -u bart:** 'https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity_type=study&study_id=2911040&attributes=id'

Here retrieving id and name,id work without a problem but retrieving name throws this movebank error:

Some Movebank standard reference data fields not automatically recognized

@sarahcd Not sure if this is the right place to log data upload issues, but I wanted to document it none the less.

Steps:

Create a csv in the Movebank standard reference data format
Write all column names in lowercase + dashes (e.g. tag-id)
Upload file
All column names are automatically recognized and mapped, except for:

deploy-on-timestamp: maybe by design, to force user to check format + timezone
deploy-off-timestamp: maybe by design, to force user to check format + timezone
ring-id: suprising, given that it is a free text field
sensor-type: surprising, given that other controlled fields were mapped. Variations Sensor type, tag-type, Tag type are not recognized either.

These might be a reupload issues, as that is what I have been doing (overwriting existing deployments)

study_attribute entity type throws 500 error

Looks like any request I make against the study_attribute entity type endpoint throws an internal server error, (500). for example, this query:

https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity-type=study_attribute&study_id=2238275

throws a 500 error. I don't have trouble querying against other endpoints like study and taxon. Any idea why this is happening? Apologies if this is not the right place to report the error.

Cannot authenticate with API if password contains colon (:)

After some debugging I found I could not login to the Movebank API because my password contained a colon. Would be good if this is documented.

Too long URI

@sarahcd

downloading event data of a individual with spaces in the name

Hi @sarahcd, we encountered a problem downloading data in move2. So here my question how one would do it with the rest api, as this will solve the move2 problem

So, I want to download all GPS data from the individual Amadeus + / DER AY620 (eobs 5703) in the study 21231406 as in move2 I got an error, I tried this:

https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity_type=event&study_id=21231406&sensor_type_id=653&individual_local_identifier=Amadeus + / DER AY620 (eobs 5703)

but the returned table was empty. I have the feeling that the issue is that the individual name has spaces. Do you know how to go about this?

Thanks!

I can't request data with json, it response null

Request data with json response null data.
https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/public/json?study_id=16615296&individual_id=16615410&sensor_type=gps

This request is fine, but it response csv data.
https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity_type=event&study_id=16615296&individual_id=16615410

getting names of all available attributes that can be listed in the 'attributes' argument

Is there a possibility to get through the API a full list of attributes that the argument attributes accepts?

When getting the list of attributes available for a sensor: https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity_type=study_attribute&study_id=2911040&sensor_type_id=653

the resulting list:

[1] "eobs_battery_voltage"              "eobs_fix_battery_voltage"          "eobs_horizontal_accuracy_estimate"                             
 [4] "eobs_key_bin_checksum"             "eobs_speed_accuracy_estimate"      "eobs_start_timestamp"             
 [7] "eobs_status"                       "eobs_temperature"                  "eobs_type_of_fix"                 
[10] "eobs_used_time_to_get_fix"         "ground_speed"                      "heading"                          
[13] "height_above_ellipsoid"            "location_lat"                      "location_long"                    
[16] "timestamp"                         "update_ts"                         "visible"

seems incomplete when looking at the example of the API:

https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity_type=event&study_id=2911040&attributes=individual_local_identifier,tag_local_identifier,timestamp,location_long,location_lat,visible,individual_taxon_canonical_name

as individual_local_identifier,tag_local_identifier,individual_taxon_canonical_name are not included in the study_attributes table.

Now, ok, one could think that also animal, tag, deployment attributes can be listed in the attributes argument, but if you search for which are available with e.g. entity_type=individual, than these attributes are called local_identifier,taxon_canonical_name. Very confusing for most of the users.
Is there a way of getting the complete list, with the correct names, that the attributes argument accepts? Because as soon as there is one wrong, the study won't download....

Thanks!!

Filter in HTTPS call

I see there there are filtering options for events included update_ts. Is it possible to develop a call for a given calendar day using that filter?

Something akin to:

https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity_type=event&study_id=2911040&sensor_type_id=653&update_ts=20190718

clarification on how to accept terms?

Thanks for providing this excellent API and associated documentation. In the documentation for the event entity, I see the description about the accept-license message, but it is unclear to me both from the API documentation and from the message itself how one would go doing that one-time accept-license step.

I tried adding the header accept-license: true to my API call, but that didn't work. How do I accept these licenses? Can I do this over the API?

Thanks for the help!

Argos Doppler shift not producing sensor datatable

I just ran into an issue using package 'move' when trying to get the reference data for one of my studies. I was able to traceback the error to a 0 record sensor data. Specifically,

https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity_type=sensor&tag_study_id=28243149185

produces no records. I get the 3 column headings 'id', 'sensor_type_id', and 'tag_id' but no rows.
but my companion project with GPS sensors

https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity_type=sensor&tag_study_id=2681479653

does work, for this study I get rows for each of the 40 tags.

Since there are no records output, it is causing an error in the 'move' package, but it seems like there should be 5 records for this project - one for each tag.

API vs vocabulary for `tag-readout-method` and `manipulation_type`

I'm retrieving this url: https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity_type=deployment&study_id=1259686571

It contains the attribute tag-readout-method, in the vocabulary it says it can be phone-network however the api returns me phone network. Should dashed be replaced by spaces?

Attributes=all fails in combination with event_reduction_profiles

This url: https://www.movebank.org/movebank/service/direct-read?entity_type=event&study_id=2911040&attributes=all&event_reduction_profile=EURING_01 fails for me, if I explicitly mention the attributes I want it works

HTTP/CSV download for undeployed locations

I have a unique case where I would like to review the undeployed location data for my project (pre deployment and post recovery). Is this possible via the api?

When is deployment information included in downloading event data?

When downloading from the API its not always clear when deployment information is relevant. By default if you download event data the deployment_id is not included (e.g. https://github.com/movebank/movebank-api-doc/blob/master/movebank-api.md#get-event-data-from-a-study). The 'tag_id' and 'individual_id' will not conclusively give information about deployments (e.g. a tag might be deployed twice on one individual). Is deployment_id reported in those cases? Or should I always explicitly request it? It might be an idea to include it by default.
