move2ade {move}

Convert a Move or MoveStack object to a SpatialPointsDataFrame

Description

Convert a Move or MoveStack object to adehabitat compatible object. This is necessary because Move and MoveStack objects are not inherited by the object class that is typically used by the adehabitat package. Therefore, the move2ade function allows to use functions of the adehabitatHR package with objects that were originally created with the Move package.

Usage

  ## S4 method for signature '.MoveTrackSingle'
move2ade(x)
  ## S4 method for signature '.MoveTrackStack'
move2ade(x)

Arguments

x

a move, moveStack or moveBurst object

Details

There is also the possibility to convert between a ltraj object and a Move or MoveStack:
as(x,"ltraj") where "x" is a Move or MoveStack object
as(x,"Move") or as(x,"MoveStack") where "x" is a ltraj object

Value

The returned object is from SpatialPointsDataFrame with the animal name (or 'unnamed') stored in the data slot of the SpatialPointsDataFrame.
