Dear all, I wish to create a POSIXct variable from date and time variables using the ymd_hm function in package lubridate. In some cases data for time is missing, which causes a problem for ymd_hm. I wish to find a smooth way to handle this. # Some example data: x <- data.frame(date = c("2011-09-22", "2011-07-28"), time = c("15:00", NA)) x # paste date and

I am trying to convert an array from numeric values back to date and time format. The code I have used is as follows; for (i in 0:(length(DateTime3)-1)) { DateTime3[i] <- (strptime(start, "%m/%d/%Y %H:%M")+ i*interval) where start <- [1] "1/1/1981 00:00" However the created array (DateTime3) contains [1,] 347156400 347157600 347158800 347160000 347161200 347162400

Hello Forum, I have a problem with the strptime function. With the ''data1'' dataset below it works fine, but with the ''data2'' dataset something goes wrong (see final line below). Both data1 and data2 are in exactly the same original format, the only difference is that they span different dates. Please help, since it is driving me nuts! Many thanks. Best

Hello there This is the first time I have used r-help message board so I hope I have got the right address. I am trying to check the residuals of a GLMM model(run using the package lme4). I have been able to check the residiuals of REMLs in lme4 using the following: m1<-lmer(vTotal~Week+fCollar+ (1|fCat), collars) res<-resid(m1) plot(res) qqnorm(res) library(MASS) par(mfrow=c(2,3))

I am creating habitat selection models for caribou and other species with data collected from GPS collars. In my current situation the radio-collars recorded the locations of 30 caribou every 6 hours. I am then comparing resources used at caribou locations to random locations using logistic regression (standard habitat analysis). The data is therefore highly autocorrelated and this causes Type

Hi r-help forum, I have been collecting contact data (with proximity logger collars) between a few different species of animal. All animals wear the collars, and any contact between the animals should be detected and recorded by both collars. However, this isn't always the case and more contacts may be recorded on one collar of the two. This is fine, it depends on battery life and other

Hi R help forum, I have a simple data frame of four columns - one of numbers (really a categorical variable), one of dates and one of data. I have over 500,000 data points to work with, spread over 40 files, each named after a different animal. These are contact data recorded by proximity loggers over two years between the animals of the file name and collars being worn by other animals. The

Dear Listers, Apologize to pile up on the 'tz' issue in POSIX objects. I have a 'simple' thing on which I must make up my mind but cannot do it from the existing R-help threads. I am currently working on dog telemetry in China, and download time information from GPS collars. I would like to set up the corresponding POSIXxx variables in R to a given time zone. Eg Pekin

Dear all, I have just uploaded to CRAN the version 1.4 of the package 'adehabitat'. Significant changes are listed below: - The eigenanalysis of selection ratios (Calenge and Dufour, 2006, Ecology) can now be performed using the function eisera(). It can be used for the analysis of habitat selection when habitat can be considered to consist of several habitat types (e.g.

Hi guys, one of the questions where you need a real human instead of a search engine, so it would be great if you could help. I have a matrix of z-scores which I would like to filter, sometimes columnwise, sometimes rowwise.

Hi all, I have a simple data frame of three columns - one of numbers (really a categorical variable), one of dates and one of data.

"help" We want to estimate the number of caribou in Jasper. We recently conducted an aerial survey and saw 70 uncollared caribou and 8 of 11 collared caribou. We want to estimate the number of caribou in this population with 95% confidence limits. Gary White uses the hypergeometric distribution and determines the population estimates using maximum likelihood and 95%CL as

Hello All and thanks in advance for any advice. I have a data frame with rows corresponding radio-collared animals (see sample data below). There is a start date (DATESTART), and end date (DATEEND), and the number of days on air (DAYSONAIR). What I would like to do is add a column called DATE to so that each row ID has a row for every day that the radio collar was on the air while copying all

Hello, I am working within package 'maptools' to plot a number of collared animal locations by reading in shapefiles of locations, roads, hydrology, and landownership as imported layers. The trouble I have is that some individual locations are overlapping and I would like to "zoom" into or create new plots for overlapping points/points that are too close together. I will be
