A dataset containing GPS positions for wild reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) in Setesdal Austhei management area, southern Norway. It includes data from 9 female individuals collected between 2007 and 2010. The coordinates are presented in coordinate reference system ETRS89/UTM 33N (EPSG:25833).
Dataset taken from the supplementary data from the paper Cagnacci, F., Focardi, S., Ghisla, A., van Moorter, B., Merrill, E.H., Gurarie, E., Heurich, M., Mysterud, A., Linnell, J., Panzacchi, M., May, R., Nygård, T., Rolandsen, C. and Hebblewhite, M. (2016), How many routes lead to migration? Comparison of methods to assess and characterize migratory movements. J Anim Ecol, 85: 54-68. https://doi.org/10.1111/1365-2656.12449.
