I have multiple text files (CSV) with a structure similar to this:
funkiana,23.55,-99.866
funkiana,24.634,-98.701
funkiana,24.717,-98.901
geminiflora,22.25,-104.6166667
geminiflora,21.21666667,-104.65
horrida,19.633,-97.367
horrida,23.61666667,-102.575
horrida,22.158,-100.979
horrida,19.506,-97.433
horrida,17,-97.56667
horrida,19.485,-97.263
horrida,19.017,-99.133
horrida,19.017,-99.15
horrida,18.91,-99.23
horrida,17.82167,-100.26333
horrida,19.507,-97.438
inaequidens,19.399,-99.314
inaequidens,23.58333,-105.8833
inaequidens,19.767,-103.7
inaequidens,20.787,-103.848
As you can see, there are three fields (species, latitude and longitude). Now, I want to split each CSV file into different CSV files, containing only the data of each species. In other words, I want a file for all the occurrences of funkiana
(with lat/lon), another for geminiflora
(with lat/lon) and so on.
Any ideas on how to do this? Maybe with a script or an Excel macro?
Beautiful answer...sorry I can only upvote it only one time. – Gary's Student – 2015-08-01T12:30:38.927
Thank you very much! This is exactly what I wanted to do :) . I will check the resources you used. Definitely, I need to learn Power Shell scripting. Thank you again. – Kureno – 2015-08-01T18:53:45.763
