Description
The study of ecological networks is severely limited by 1) the difficulty to access data, 2) the lack of a standardized way to
link meta-data with interactions, and 3) the disparity of formats in which ecological networks themselves are stored and
represented. To overcome these limitations, we have designed a data specification for ecological networks. We implemented
a database respecting this standard, and released an R package (rmangal) allowing users to programmatically access, curate,
and deposit data on ecological interactions. In this article, we show how these tools, in conjunction with other frameworks
for the programmatic manipulation of open ecological data, streamlines the analysis process and improves replicability and
reproducibility of ecological network studies.
