What does it mean to exhibit "local" travel behaviour? In his latest paper @MiladMzdh @westernuGeoEnv develops a new method to quantify "localness" in urban travel patterns using GPS tracking data combined with OSM POIs, take a look! #Mobility #GIS doi.org/10.1080/13658816.202…

Congratulations to @CameraTrapNat (Natalia Hrynko) @westernuGeoEnv for a successful MSc defence! Nat implemented a #CameraTrap study at the Long Point National Wildlife Area to quantify #coyote abundance and seasonal habitat use. #SpatialEcology.
Congratulations to Matthew Ketchin @westernuGeoEnv for defending his MSc thesis on studying patterns of outdoor recreation in Canada! Matt used data fusion with multiple datasets to map spatial-temporal patterns of outdoor recreation intensity. #GIS #OutdoorRecreation
Great research led by @HailyeeH82484 @westernuGeoEnv studying travel patterns during the 2024 Total Solar Eclipse using @TELUS Network Mobility data through their data for good program.
Exploring Travel Patterns During the 2024 Solar Eclipse using De-identified Mobility Data
PhD student Hui Jeong Ha and Professor Jed Long used TELUS Data for Good program to reveal that nearly 600,000 Canadians travelled to see the eclipse. Read more: tinyurl.com/mwskdymx

wildilfeDI #Rstats Package to study S-T interaction in wildlife tracking data has been updated on CRAN with a major change to now use exclusively use the #move2 class of trajectory objects.
cran.r-project.org/web/packa…
These changes are for long term stability of package, but also provide some efficienices and simplifications of some post analysis processes, more details here:

Ph.D. assistantship available starting Fall 2024 at Texas A&M University working on population and spatial ecology of collared peccary. If you like GPS data then this project is for you! We will GPS tag up to 350 javelina and mark 100s more. #movementecology
We are excited to announce that we are seeking applicants for a fully funded Ph.D. assistantship to begin a long-term study on collared peccary ecology in southern Texas. Learn more: jobs.rwfm.tamu.edu/view-job/… #WildlifeBiologist #Research #GradSchool #PhD #WildlifeResearch #Wildlife
