Table 1 T-LoCoH hull metrics

From: Home range plus: a space-time characterization of movement over real landscapes

Density

Time use

- Area

- Revisitation rate (number of separate visitsb)

- Number of nearest neighbours used in hull construction

- Duration of visit (mean number of occurrence per visitb)

- Number of enclosed points

Elongation/movement phase

- Revisitation rate and duration of visit normalized by area

- Eccentricity of a bounding ellipsoid constructed around the hull

Time

- Ratio of hull perimeter to area

- Hour of dayc

- Mean and standard deviation of the speeda of nearest neighbours used in hull construction

- Monthc

- Datec

- Mean and standard deviation of the speeda of all points enclosed by the hull

- Time span of hull nearest neighbours

  1. a speed of a point sampled at time t is measured from t-1 to t+1.
  2. b separate visits differentiated by an inter-visit gap period provided by the analyst.
  3. c of the hull parent point.
