create flow to download cubes from gbif

[SanderDevisscher]

• create cron triggered github action to download cubes from gbif
• place cube files in input - folder
• change 05_occurrence_indicators_preprocessing.Rmd to start from downloaded files
• change create full_timeseries.csv - workflow to trigger when download workflow was succesful, see trigger code:

on:
 workflow_run:
 workflows: [download_cubes]
 types:
 - completed

@damianooldoni what is the status on downloading the species cubes directly from gbif ?

Hi @SanderDevisscher: unfortunately this is not planned for 2023 yet, my mistake.
But they can create cubes on demand if you need them.

I will aks for an occurrence cube. Are these below your requirements?

CONSTRAINTS:

1. taxonomic: everything
2. time: everything
3. space: Belgium

GRANULARITY:

1. taxonomic: taxa as mentioned in the GRIIS checklist (some are species, some subspecies, some are genus...)
2. time: year
3. space: 1x1km EEA grid

If they will not be able to provide it (very unlikely), then I will produce it as I did the last years.

too bad, would be nice to write it as it would become.

I think so, I essentially need an update, new species due to updated of GRIIS checklist & new observations due to passing of time, of the alienSpecies cubes be_alientaxa_cube.csv & be_classes_cube.csv as done in trias-project/occ-cube-alien.

If they will not be able to provide it (very unlikely), then I will produce it as I did the last years.

Thanks
