pamlr Manual
2021-07-30
1 Introduction
This is a user manual accompanying the R package pamlr, which provides a set of functions for analysing behaviour from multisensor geolocator data - primarily for small migratory birds (however the methods are generalisable). The package is setup for SOI-GDL3pam loggers (developped by the Swiss Ornithological Institute) which measure atmospheric pressure (P), activity (A), magnetisim (M), temperautre and light. However, other multisensor geolocator data may be used, if it is formatted in the same format as SOI-GDL3pam data (see Importing data).
