The correct_class() function corrects the classes of each column in a data frame of your queried species.
This function requires no additional packages.
Usage

basis.of.record = "basisOfRecord",
event.date = "eventDate",
year = "year",
month = "month",
day = "day",
inst.code = "institutionCode",
recorded.by = "recordedBy",
country = "country",
county = "county",
state = "stateProvince",
locality = "locality",
latitude = "latitude",
longitude = "longitude",
coord.uncertainty = "coordinateUncertaintyInMeters",
info.withheld = "informationWithheld",
