Telemetry Fixes in Polygons

Description

For a telemetry dataset, either as a standalone capthist object with detector type ‘telemetryonly’ or the xylist attribute of a combined capthist object resulting from addTelemetry, determine the proportion of fixes of each individual that lie within a set of polygons. Typically used to obtain the proportion of fixes on a trapping grid, hence ‘proportion on grid’.

Usage

PG(CH, poly = NULL, includeNULL = FALSE, plt = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

CH	capthist object including telemetry locations
poly	polygon object (see boundarytoSF)
includeNULL	logical; if TRUE then missing values are returned for animals without telemetry data
plt	logical; if TRUE then poly and telemetry locations are plotted
...	other arguments passed to bufferContour

Details

By default poly is obtained by applying bufferContour with arguments ... to the traps attribute of CH. Note that either a positive buffer argument or convex = TRUE is needed for the polygon to have area > 0.

If plt = TRUE, bufferContour is used to plot poly and the points are overplotted (open circles outside, filled circles inside). To control the framing of the plot, create an initial plot (e.g., with plot.traps, setting the border argument) and use add = TRUE (see Examples).

Value

Numeric vector of proportions. If includeNULL = TRUE length equal to number of animals (rows) in CH; otherwise length is the number of animals for which there is telemetry data (because xylist may cover only a subset of animals in CH).
