Annotated data of wild reindeer in Norway, prepared for point resource-selection analysis.

Source: R/reindeer.R
reindeer_rsf.Rd

An data set where GPS positions of wild reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) Hardangervidda management area, southern Norway, were organized in a use-availability design for point resource-selection analysis (RSA) and annotated with environmental data. It includes data from 115 female individuals collected between 2001 and 2019. The data set was regularized with 3h data and 9 random locations were created for each used location. It was then annotated with rasters on the zone of influence of private cabins and public resorts with exponential decay shape and radii varying from 100m to 10km, as well as land cover and bio-geo-climatic variables. Geographical coordinates of the used and random positions were omitted after data annotation.

This is part of the data set used for analysis in Niebuhr et al. (2023). ZOI variables with shapes other than the exponential decay were omitted.

Usage

data(reindeer_rsf)

Format

A data frame with 31,735 rows and 28 variables:

use

Case in the use-availability setup; 1 represents a used location, 0 represents a random locations.

private_cabins_cumulative_exp_decay_XXX

Cumulative zone of influence of private cabins at each location, with exponential decay shape, and radii defined by XXX (from 100 to 10000m).

private_cabins_nearest_exp_decay_XXX

Zone of influence of the nearest private cabin at each location, with exponential decay shape, and radii defined by XXX (from 100 to 10000m).

public_cabins_cumulative_exp_decay_XXX

Cumulative zone of influence of public resorts at each location, with exponential decay shape, and radii defined by XXX (from 100 to 10000m).

public_cabins_nearest_exp_decay_XXX

Zone of influence of the nearest public resort at each location, with exponential decay shape, and radii defined by XXX (from 100 to 10000m).
