Data class for locations with associated dates, nearest neighbor info, parameters for a random walk null model, and assorted meta-data
An object of class locoh.lxy
is a list containing a series of point locations and ancillary
variables that go with those locations (e.g., time stamps, point IDs, animal IDs). These items
are bundled together and 'ready to go' as inputs into T-LoCoH functions. The benefits of bundling all
of the objects related to a set of point locations in a single list object includes:
cleaning and error checking only has to be done once when the lxy object is created (e.g., with xyt.lxy
)
having all of the ancillary variables together simplifies the task of passing parameters to other functions as well as saving/retrieving your work to disk
the nearest neighbor lookup-table (which can take a long time to compute) can be reused
locations for multiple individuals can be saved in one object
In code examples, objects of class locoh.lxy
are often indicated by a 'lxy' suffix, and functions that are designed to work on LoCoH-xy
objects typically start with 'lxy'.
For a complete description of the data structure, see the vignette T-LoCoH Data Classes.
