【 摘 要 】

Discussions in this group focused on a particular problem that arises in animal movement ecology: how to link data describing movement (i.e. sequential GPScoordinates collected on wild and free-ranging animals) with geographical and environmental context (i.e. properties of the internal and external environment withinwhich the animals move). Our case study comprised a spatio-temporal data set on the movement of a group of vervet monkeys (Cercopithecus aethiops) over a twelve months observation period. We focused on two topics: context-aware estimation of home range area and multivariate visualisation of context data.[First Paragraph]
