probGLS

The package probabilistic algorithm for geolocation data (probGLS) provides some simple algorithms to determine animal movements with uncertainty based on light-level geolocators.

Installing

probGLS now relies on SGAT (https://github.com/SWotherspoon/SGAT) and GeoLight (https://github.com/slisovski/GeoLight). These can be installed from GitHub, using the devtools package.

devtools::install_github("SWotherspoon/SGAT")
devtools::install_github("SLisovski/GeoLight")

probGLS itself can also be installed from GitHub, using the devtools package.

devtools::install_github("benjamin-merkel/probGLS")

If you don't have devtools installed already, install it first.

install.packages("devtools")

(probGLS or SGAT otherwise do not need devtools for normal use.)

UPDATE Dec 2022

This package received a major update Dec 2022.

• removed dependency on raster and sp (excluding spDists used when distance method chosen is "ellipsoid" bc it is faster than st_distance) and move to sf
• fixed a bug in load_NOAA_OISST_V2 and streamlined the function
• updated plotting functions to adhere with the updated prob_algorithm output
• updated manuals for each function
