The dBMvariance object is created within the brownian.motion.variance.dyn function from a Move object.
The dBMvarianceStack object is created when a MoveStack is the input object.
The dBMvarianceBurst object when the input is a MoveBurst object.
These objects contain the motion variance calculated by the dynamic Brownian Bridge Movement Model.

Note

The dBMvariance object contains a .MoveTrackSingle and a dBMvarianceTmp object.
The dBMvarianceStack object contains a .MoveTrackStack and a dBMvarianceTmp object.
The dBMvarianceBurst object contains a .MoveTrackSingleBurst and a dBMvarianceTmp object.
The class dBMvarianceTmp is mostly an internal class that is made public to make inheritance easier. These objects can be used to program against.

Slots

window.size

The window size used for dbbmm calculation

margin

The margin used for dbbmm calculation

means

The variance values

in.windows

The number of windows each location was included in

interest

Logical string, FALSE: segments have been omitted in the calculation since a lower number of estimates for variance are obtained for these segments. TRUE: segments included in the calculation

break.list

list of the locations of breaks found

Methods

as.data.frame

signature(object = "dBMvarianceTmp"): extracts the spatial data frame

brownian.bridge.dyn

signature(object = "dBMvarianceTmp"): calculates the utilization distribution (UD) of the given track using the dynamic Brownian Bridge Movement Model

coordinates

signature(object = "dBMvarianceTmp"): extracts the coordinates from the Move object contained in the dBMvarianceTmp

getMotionVariance

signature(object = "dBMvarianceTmp"): extracts the estimated motion variance

lines

signature(object = "dBMvarianceTmp"): add lines of the track of the animal to a plot

points

signature(object = "dBMvarianceTmp"): add points of the track of the animal to a plot

plot

signature(object = "dBMvarianceTmp"): plots the track of the animal

show

signature(object = "dBMvarianceTmp"): displays summary the dBMvarianceTmp object

summary

signature(object = "dBMvarianceTmp"): summarizes the information of the raster from a dBMvarianceTmp object

subset

signature(object = "dBMvarianceTmp"): subsets the dBMvarianceTmp object
