loadStudyData( tz, override = NULL, start.time, stop.time, save.detections = FALSE, section.order = NULL, exclude.tags, disregard.parallels = TRUE, discard.orphans = FALSE )
tz |
The time zone of the study area. Must match one of the values
present in |
override |
A vector of signals for which the user intends to manually define which movement events are valid and invalid. |
start.time |
Detection data prior to the timestamp set in
|
stop.time |
Detection data posterior to the timestamp set in
|
save.detections |
Logical: Should the processed detections be saved for future runs? |
section.order |
A vector containing the order by which sections should be aligned in the results. |
exclude.tags |
A vector of tags that should be excluded from the detection data before any analyses are performed. Intended to be used if stray tags from a different code space but with the same signal as a target tag are detected in the study area. |
disregard.parallels |
Logical: Should the presence of parallel arrays invalidate potential efficiency peers? See the vignettes for more details. |
discard.orphans |
Logical: Should actel automatically discard detections that do not fall within receiver deployment periods, or that were recorded before the respective animals were released? |
A list containing:
bio: A data frame corresponding to 'biometrics.csv'
sections: A vector of the study area sections (or NULL in the case of the explore function)
deployments: A list corresponding to 'deployments.csv'
spatial: A list corresponding to 'spatial.csv'
dot: A data frame containing the connections between arrays
arrays: A list containing detailed information on the arrays
dotmat: A matrix of the distance (in number of arrays) between pairs of arrays
dist.mat: A matrix of the distances (in metres) between stations (if a 'distances.csv' is present)
detections.list: A list containing the detection data for each tag
paths: A list of the all array paths between each pair of arrays.
