SDLfilter

Functions to filter GPS/Argos locations, as well as assessing the sample size for the analysis of animal distributions. The filters remove temporal and spatial duplicates, fixes located at a given height from estimated high tide line, and locations with high error as described in Shimada et al. (2012) doi:10.3354/meps09747 and Shimada et al. (2016) doi:10.1007/s00227-015-2771-0. Sample size for the analysis of animal distributions can be assessed by the conventional area-based approach or the alternative probability-based approach as described in Shimada et al. (2021) doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13506.
