The tsammalexdata package

The tsammalexdata package provides the following functionality:

• A test suite which can be invoked by travis-ci (or locally) to check integrity of the data.
• Scripts to enrich the core data with supplemental data from external sources (like EOL of GBIF).

Making a release of the data:

1. Make sure the tests pass:

    $ nosetests
    ----------------------------------------
    Ran ...

    OK

2. Harvest additional data and compute distribution data:

    updatetaxa
    git add tsammalexdata/data/external/gbif/*.json
    git commit -a -m"updated taxa info from external sources"
    git push origin

3. Upload images.
