calibrateDepth: Calibrate and build a "TDRcalibrate" object

Description

These functions create a "TDRcalibrate" object which is necessary to obtain dive summary statistics.

Usage

calibrateDepth(x, landerr=70, seaerr=3610, divethres=4, offset)
calibrateSpeed(x, type="all", calType="pooled", bad=c(0, 0),
               z=0, filename=slot(getTDR(x), "file"), coefs, ...)

Arguments

an object of class TDR for calibrateDepth, and an object of class TDRcalibrate-class for calibrateSpeed.

landerr, seaerr

arguments to detPhase.

divethres

argument to detDive.

offset

argument to zoc.

type, calType, bad, z, filename

further arguments for .getSpeedCalib and doSpeedCalib.

coefs

known speed calibration coefficients from quantile regression as a vector of length 2 (intercept, slope). If provided, these coefficients are used for calibrating speed, ignoring all other arguments, except x.

...

argument passed to doSpeedCalib.

Value

An object of class TDRcalibrate-class

Details

These functions are really wrappers around functions that are usually called in sequence, so they provided an abbreviated method for running them together during analyses. See the functions in the See Also section for more details.

calibrateDepth performs zero-offset correction of depth, wet/dry phase detection, and detection of dives, as well as proper labelling of the latter.

calibrateSpeed calibrates speed readings.
