add_velocities {swaRmverse}

Add Velocity Timeseries Across Sets

Description

This function calculates and adds the speed and heading of each individual over time in the dataset, and splits it in a list of dataframes based on the defined sets.

Usage

add_velocities(data, geo = FALSE, verbose = FALSE, parallelize = FALSE)

Arguments

data

A data frame with time series of individual's positional data, as exported by the set_data_format function. Columns needed: set, t, id, x, y.

geo

Logical, whether positions are geographic coordinates, default = FALSE.

verbose

Logical, whether to post updates on progress, default = FALSE.

parallelize

Logical, whether to run the function in parallel over individuals, default = FALSE.

Value

A list of dataframes, an element per set from the input dataframe with new columns: head and speed.
