Аннотация: Solar geolocators are relatively cheap and simple tools which are widely used to study the migration of animals, especially birds. The methods to estimate the geographic positions from the light intensity patterns collected by these loggers, however, are still under development. The reconstruction, with known precision, of the annual schedules and movement patterns of individual animals requires analytical methods which provide daily location estimates as well as estimates of the probability of occurrence of movement, distance and direction, with measures of their uncertainty. The new R package FLightR meets all these requirements. It enables refined and statistically validated estimations of movement patterns of birds. Here we present main features of this advanced package.
