[tlocoh-info] Sampling frequency graph

[Chavoux Luyt]

Hi Cassandra,

I agree with the answer by Damian Lidgard. As I understand it, you define a
"visit" period (in order to see whether 2 points in the same area is part
of a single visit or a revisit). Typically, for predators I used the
longest period they would stay on a single carcass. So if your sample
frequency is longer apart than the "visit period", there is no way to
classify it as anything else than a revisit. I would analyse the 2 periods
separately.

HTH.
