Vincenzo,
Attached is a link for the animal movement extention used in Arcview 3.2
http://www.absc.usgs.gov/glba/gistools/
The Tool was created by Hooge and Eichenlaub (please remember to cite if
you use it). This tool is quite easy to use and the website has a
manual generally describing the procedures. I would also suggest
reading material such as :
Seaman, D. E. and R. A. Powell. 1996. An evaluation of the accuracy of
kernal density estimators for home range analysis. Ecology. 77(7):
2075-2085
Seaman, D. E., J. J. Millspaugh, B. J. Kernohan, G. C. Brundige, K. J.
Raedeke, and R. A. Gitzen. 1999. Effects of sample size on kernal home
range estimates. Journal of Wildlife Management. 63(2): 739-747
These are two references that explain the effect of sample size and
accuracy of kernel densities. This will get you started. Hope this
helps.

Vincenzo,
I don't know how far you can travel for this type of training, but the
US
Fish & Wildlife service has a training center called the National
Conservation Training Center that offers one week courses in several
different GIS applications. They offer (or used too) a class entitled
"the
Analysis of telemetry data in the GIS environment" that would probably
address your needs. I forgot if we can include links or not but the
address
for the NCTC is http://training.fws.gov/. You'll have to look at their
schedule since they only offer specific classes once or twice a year as
the
need occurs. Hope this is helpful.
Cheers,

Dear all,
I'm working with ultrasonic telemetry and artificial reef...
Last month I've finished a pilot-experiment on white sea bream,
ultrasonically tagged and released in an artificial reef area...
I've learned how my telemetry system works, but I don't know very much
about
home-range calculation, site-fidelity test... in other words I don't
know
how to use animal movement application for GIS, or other tools for
spatial
analysis.
My idea is to leave my lab for 10-15 days and to learn everything about
this
matter.
Can you tell me if there's somebody able to teach me all about GIS
ani-mov
application and the ecological theories behind?
thanks a lot and please forgive my english!!
:D
