movedesign: Study design of movement ecology studies

Simoes Silva, Ines Maria; Fleming, Christen H.; Noonan, Michael J.; Fagan, Willian F.; Calabrese, Justin

A Shiny R application that aims to assist researchers in designing animal tracking projects related to two main research questions: the estimation of home range and of speed and distance traveled. The application makes use of simulations to assess the degree of estimate precision that may be achieved with a given sampling design; that is, the choices regarding data resolution (sampling interval) and battery life (sampling duration).
