estimate_hr: Estimate home range from simulated movement data

Description

Estimates home range areas for each simulated movement dataset using the Autocorrelated Kernel Density Estimator (AKDE) via ctmm::akde(). This function is intended for use within simulation workflows where home range calculations are needed for each simulated individual.

Usage

estimate_hr(rv)

Value

A named list of ctmm objects, each representing an AKDE home range estimate for the corresponding simulation. If AKDE estimation fails for a simulation (e.g., due to poor model fit or data issues), the result for that simulation will be NULL.

Arguments

rv

A reactiveValues list containing, at a minimum:

  • simList: A list of simulated movement datasets (e.g., telemetry tracks).

  • simfitList: A list of fitted movement models, each corresponding to an entry in simList.

Each movement dataset in simList should be compatible with ctmm::akde(), and each fitted model in simfitList should correspond to its respective simulated dataset.
