A standardized workflow to reconstruct spatial configurations of altitude-bounded biogeographic systems over time. For example, 'tabs' can model how island archipelagos expand or contract with changing sea levels or how alpine biomes shift in response to tree line movements. It provides functionality to account for various geophysical processes such as crustal deformation and other tectonic changes, allowing for a more accurate representation of biogeographic system dynamics. For more information see De Groeve et al. (2025) <doi:10.3897/arphapreprints.e151900>.

Helps the user to build and register schema descriptions of 
    disorganised (messy) tables. Disorganised tables are tables that are 
    not in a topologically coherent form, where packages such as 'tidyr' could 
    be used for reshaping. The schema description documents the arrangement of 
    input tables and is used to reshape them into a standardised (tidy) output 
    format.

Simplify reporting many tables by creating tibbles of tables. With
  'tabtibble', a tibble of tables is created with captions and automatic
  printing using 'knit_print()'.

An easy way to examine archaeological count data. This
    package provides several tests and measures of diversity:
    heterogeneity and evenness (Brillouin, Shannon, Simpson, etc.),
    richness and rarefaction (Chao1, Chao2, ACE, ICE, etc.), turnover and
    similarity (Brainerd-Robinson, etc.). It allows to easily visualize
    count data and statistical thresholds: rank vs abundance plots,
    heatmaps, Ford (1962) and Bertin (1977) diagrams, etc.

Bindings for the 'Tabula' <https://tabula.technology/> 'Java'
    library, which can extract tables from PDF files. This tool can reduce time
    and effort in data extraction processes in fields like investigative
    journalism. It allows for automatic and manual table extraction, the latter
    facilitated through a 'Shiny' interface, enabling manual areas selection\
    with a computer mouse for data retrieval.
