Filename: 24_DI.py Short description: Python script takes in "aa00_f_75.csv" and creates as csv file called "24_DI.csv" B. Filename: MCP_KDE.R Short description: R script takes in aa.csv and creates three csv files and a directory with shape files: - kde90_96_C2.csv : Includes 90% KDE values for each calf within the first 96 hours post-captured. - final_kde2.csv : Includes 90% and 50% KDE home range areas within the first 96 hours post-captured. - final_mcp100.csv: Includes MCP home range areas within the 96 hours post-captured. - moooooh - kde90_96_C4.dbf - kde90_96_C4.prj - kde90_96_C4.shp : A shapefile including 90% KDE home range polygons. - kde90_96_C4.shx C. Filename: aa.csv Short description: aa.csv file is the preprocessed dataset including the hourly and synchronous locations of each pair of GPS-collared dam/calfs. This file also holds attributes such as time, calf/dam pair unique ids (PK), and capturing and collaring site locations. D. Filename: aa00_f_75.csv Short description: This file includes all information hosted in aa.csv plus some extra derived columns like hourly distances from the capturing site. 2. Relationship between files: The script 24_DI.py measures the Dynamic Interaction (DI) values for the trajectories of each calf/dam pair in the first 24 hours post-captured. The output (24_DI.csv) would include 3 new column for three different DI measurement including DI_D, DI_Theta, DI_Global. It also will have a column recording the hourly distances of dam and calf from each other named schism. However, the MCP_KDE.R file is an R script which measures the KDE and MCP home ranges of each calf and each dam separately. The final output is a set of polygons showing the calculated home ranges for the first 96 hours post-captured. 3.
