Fixes

• The correct step id is now given in random_steps.brusted_track_xyt().

amt 0.2

updates

• Removed dependency on Rccp, all code is now in R.
• extract_covariates() no longer accepts a buffer.
• Updated time_of_day() to use suncalc instead of maptools.
• Updated hr_overlap() from raster to terra.

• Updated hr_isopleths() from raster/sp to terra/sf.
• hr_cud() updated from raster to terra.
• extrackt_covariates*() updated from raster to terra.
• distance_to_center() was removed.
• Updated step, it now uses sf::st_distance() instead of raster::distance().

amt 0.1.2

bug fixes

updates

amt 0.1.0

bug fixes

• random_steps uses abs direction as reference instead of relative direction

updates

• Streamlined home-range methods
• Added methods for overlaps and intersections of home ranges
• Added href scaled for KDE

amt 0.0.9

bug fixes

• extract_covariate now works with new version of tibble for raster stacks.
• fit_distr for gamma distribution, now replaces 0 step length with min step- length and informs the user with a message.

minor changes

major changes

• replaced testthat with tinytest

amt 0.0.8

new features

• New vignette for RSFs.
• New functions to calculate RSS.
• New vignette for interfacing other packages.
• Added method to interface the move packages.

major changes

• Adjusted random_steps
• Removed dependency on velox. This makes extract_covariates_along slower.

amt 0.0.7

new features

• Added a dplyr count method for track, steps, random_steps and random_points
