abstract: A programmatic interface to the 'Finnish Biodiversity Information Facility'
  ('FinBIF') API (<https://api.laji.fi>). 'FinBIF' aggregates Finnish biodiversity
  data from multiple sources in a single open access portal for researchers, citizen
  scientists, industry and government. 'FinBIF' allows users of biodiversity information
  to find, access, combine and visualise data on Finnish plants, animals and microorganisms.
  The 'finbif' package makes the publicly available data in 'FinBIF' easily accessible
  to programmers. Biodiversity information is available on taxonomy and taxon occurrence.
  Occurrence data can be filtered by taxon, time, location and other variables. The
  data accessed are conveniently preformatted for subsequent analyses.
