fixrates

A dataset listing typical GPS fix rates for animal tracking devices.
Useful for selecting typical sampling schedules in wildlife tracking
projects.

datasets

Toolbox and 'shiny' application to help researchers design
movement ecology studies, focusing on two key objectives: estimating
home range areas, and estimating fine-scale movement behavior,
specifically speed and distance traveled. It provides interactive
simulations and methodological guidance to support study planning and
decision-making. The application is described in Silva et al. (2023)
