Description Usage Arguments Value Note Author(s) See Also Examples

Methods for processing tables of site location: Generate a table of latitude and longitude of site locations from either precalculated values or GPS coordinates. Generate a table of distances from an included site, using a table of latitude and longitude of site locations.

hzar.map.latLongSites(siteIDs, site.lat, site.long, degrees = TRUE)
hzar.map.latLongSites.dms(siteIDs, coordinates)
hzar.map.distanceFromSite(latLongSites, site0, units = "Km")

`siteIDs`	A character vector used to identify each site.
`site.lat`	A numeric vector of site longitudes.
`site.long`	A numeric vector of site longitudes.
`degrees`	Are `site.lat` and `site.long` in degrees? If `FALSE`, `site.lat` and `site.long` should be in radians.
`coordinates`	A character vector the same length as `siteIDs`. Each value must contain the latitude and longitude in DMS format, such as: `9-22 N 82-34-50 W`
`latLongSites`	The result of either the `hzar.map.latLongSites` or `hzar.map.latLongSites.dms` method.
`site0`	The ID string for the site place at 0.
`units`	The units of distances returned. Only the case sensitive values `"Km"` for kilometers, `"miles"` for miles, and `"nautical"` for nautical miles are valid.

A data.frame: For all methods:

site

A character vector used to identify each site.

For hzar.map.latLongSites and hzar.map.latLongSites.dms:

`lat.rad`	The site latitude in radians.
`long.rad`	The site longitude in radians.
`lat.deg`	The site latitude in degrees.
`long.deg`	The site longitude in degrees.

For hzar.map.distanceFromSite:

distance

The distance to each site from a common origin.

Distances in hzar.map.distanceFromSite are calcutated using the method hzar.map.greatCircleDistance.
