Annotated data of wild reindeer in Norway, prepared for step-selection analysis.
Source:R/reindeer.R
reindeer_ssf.RdA dataset containing GPS positions for wild reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) in Setesdal Austhei management area, southern Norway, organized in a use-availability design for step-selection analysis (SSA). 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). The data set was regularized with 3h data and 10 random steps were created for each used step. It was then annotated with rasters on the zone of influence of roads and cabins with radii 1000 - 3000, both at the start and the end point of a step.
