Extract Demographic and Competition Data from Fine-Scale Maps

Description

Extracts growth, survival, and local neighborhood density information from repeated, fine-scale maps of organism occurrence. Further information about this package can be found in our journal article, "plantTracker: An R package to translate maps of plant occurrence into demographic data" published in 2022 in Methods in Ecology and Evolution (Stears, et al., 2022) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13950>.
