Description: This package makes it easy to create dendrochronological networks based on the similarity between tree-ring series or chronologies. It includes various functions to compare tree-ring curves building upon dplR. The networks can be used to visualise and understand the relations between tree-ring curves. These networks are also very useful to estimate the provenance or wood-use within a structure/context/site.

Scope
Please indicate which category or categories from our package fit policies this package falls under: (Please check an appropriate box below. If you are unsure, we suggest you make a pre-submission inquiry.):
Explain how and why the package falls under these categories (briefly, 1-2 sentences):
The software deals with the analysis of dendrochronological data and aims the help to study, understand and visualize patterns in the data using network analyses. The software combines R with Cytoscape.
Who is the target audience and what are scientific applications of this package?
Dendrochronologist. The scientific application lies in the analyses and visualization of large datasets using networks. The method has been applied before to determine the provenance of wood from archaeological contexts, but can also be used to determine other patterns based on the similarity between tree-ring series or even other time series.
Are there other R packages that accomplish the same thing? If so, how does yours differ or meet our criteria for best-in-category?
No, none as far as I know.
(If applicable) Does your package comply with our guidance around Ethics, Data Privacy and Human Subjects Research?
NA
If you made a pre-submission inquiry, please paste the link to the corresponding issue, forum post, or other discussion, or @tag the editor you contacted.
Explain reasons for any pkgcheck
items which your package is unable to pass.
I tried to run pkgcheck, but it failed with the following feedback:
Error in vapply(tag_data, function(i) i$keyword, character(1L)) :
values must be length 1,
but FUN(X[[12]]) result is length 2
I have absolutely no idea why....
The same error occurs locally and using github action.
