The list of metadata and data to collect are inspired by Givelet et al. (2004), Courtney Mustaphi et al. (2019), Kra (1986) and Jones et al. (2019).

The general collaborative strategy is derived from Oliver et al. (2018).

The package and website are build using R (R Core Team 2020), usethis (Wickham and Bryan 2020), devtools (Wickham, Hester, and Chang 2020), roxygen2 (Wickham et al. 2020), pkgdown (Wickham and Hesselberth 2020), rrtools (Marwick 2019), rmarkdown (Allaire et al. 2018), knitr (Xie 2018), kableExtra (Zhu 2019) and RStudio (RStudio Team 2020).
