Dear all, I have just uploaded to CRAN the version 1.6 of the package 'adehabitat'. Significant changes are listed below: * The package has been reorganized into four parts (see ?adehabitat-package for a description): (i) management of raster maps, (ii) habitat selection / ecological niche analysis, (iii) home range analysis, and (iv) analysis of animals trajects. The package contains

Dear all, I have just uploaded to CRAN the version 1.5 of the package 'adehabitat'. Significant changes are listed below: * the package now contains a new function allowing a factorial decomposition of the Mahalanobis distances in habitat selection studies, named madifa(). * The ENFA can now be performed using all kinds of variables (numeric, factors, fuzzy, mixing of several types,

Hello all, I'm new to adehabitat and am having trouble getting my ascii files into the r. I have 45 environmental data layers that are all stored in a folder as ascii files. Is there an easy way to pull in all 45 of my data layers into a kasc dataframe. I'm not new to r or multivariate modeling, but the documentation seems confusing. I've experimented with bringing a few of them in 1

Dear all, I have just uploaded a package to CRAN a new package called 'adehabitat'. This package is intended for ecologists who want to analyse the use of space by animals. Many functions currently used in this field are available to highlight habitat selection by animals (selection ratios, ENFA, habitat suitability maps with the algorithm DOMAIN or Resource Selection Functions) or to

Hi all, here's a proposal for a SoC project on wildlife movement patterns analysis. A MSc student is available to anwser the call, of course. The idea has already been briefly discussed with the mantainer of the adehabitat package and the AniMov project community. Short description Develop some add-on functions to use the adehabitat package to perform basic movement ecology analysis, in

Dear all, I have strong interest on Ecological Niche Model, which in general use a set of environmental variables (continuous, categorical etc) and Presence (or Presense/Absence) records for species. I think that "grasp" and "adehabitat" packages could help me on these tasks. My input layers are on ASC format, and the record of species is a data-frame with X, Y, name of

Hi R- User,I tried to load package adehabitat for R version 2.15.0. But, I got error. even I download and save in local drive and tried to install from the local file. but still i got the following errors install.packages("adehabitat", repos='C:/adehabitat_1.8.10.tgz') package ‘adehabitat’ is not available (for R version 2.15.0) > install.packages("adehabitat",

Hello all, I am currently working with rpart to classify vegetation types by spectral characteristics, and am comming up with poor classifications based on the fact that I have some vegetation types that have only 15 observations, while others have over 100. I have attempted to supply prior weights to the dataset, though this does not improve the classification greatly. Could anyone supply some

Hello I wonder if anybody can help, I am using the package adehabitatHR to estimate the potential distribution of a species using the command "domain" In the example given in the AdehabitatHS manual a map containing elevation information is loaded (class= spatial pixels data frame) as well as the GPS points of the animals being tracked, these are then plotted on each other and

Hello, I'm new to R and am trying to use the adehabitat package for home range and habitat selection analysis for some animal radiotelemetry data sets I have, but I can't get the home range functions (mcp & kernelUD) to work with my data. I think that my problem is that I don't properly understand how the package uses data frames and factors, and I may not be defining the id

Dear all, I'm using the package adehabitat in R to import several .asc files (=matrix), and also create a kasc object (=dataframe) with all of them. The main idea is to use this kasc object to map the predicted values of climate-matching model for an overall area. However, I don't know how to proceed: Do I have to project the model (already stored in R) onto the kasc object directly, or

Dear all, I have uploaded to CRAN the version 1.8 of the package 'adehabitat'. Significant changes are listed below: * getverticeshr now relies on the function contourLines(), and returns smoother estimates of the kernel home range (see the help page). * the new function kernelkc (and related functions) now allows the estimation of the utilization distribution in space and time of

Hello, I've been trying to calculate home range sizes (for Icelandic geese!) using minimum convex polygons with the adehabitat package. I've tried to use the R code shown by demo(homerange) in adehabitat and when that didn't work I've fiddled around with it but to no avail...Below is the output of the demo that I've attempted to follow, followed by a subset of my data (for one

Friends, I have noticed that many publications that use RF report variable importance as a function of mean decrease in accuracy rather than mean decrease in gini. Am I correct that the mean decrease in accuracy is just the mean decrease in gini divided by 100? Thanks, Helen Mills Poulos Yale School of Forestry

All, What purpose does the getTree function have in Random Forest? Can you graph it as you can in rpart and can it be interpreted in the same way? Helen Mills Poulos Yale School of Forestry

Dear all, I have just uploaded to CRAN the version 1.2 of the package 'adehabitat'. This package now contains new functions for the estimation of home ranges (Nearest neighbour convex hull, brownian bridge approach for kernel estimation), estimation of schoener's ratio. This package now allows a better management of objects of class "area" (see plot.area, perarea, ararea).

Dear all, I have just uploaded to CRAN the version 1.3 of the package 'adehabitat'. Significant changes are listed below: - Several functions allowing the conversion from and to classes of the package sp have been added. Maps of class "asc", "kasc", "area", as well as radio-monitoring of class "traj" can now be converted to the spatial
