A presentation given at the ESIP 2017 Summer meeting Abstract: In this session, we will demonstrate how to use the R Package for EML generation (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/EML/index.html). Data managers at the Environmental Data Initiative have been using this package extensively and we have a number example R scripts available in our developing git repository (https://github.com/EDIorg/EMLtools). Participants will be shown how to use github from within R Studio and can eventually share their R scripts via the Information Management Code library. Everyone is encouraged to bring laptops and follow along. R Studio needs to be installed and a basic level of R experience is expected.
