Function library for processing collective movement data (e.g. fish
    schools, ungulate herds, baboon troops) collected from GPS trackers or 
    computer vision tracking software.

Provides a pipeline for the comparative analysis of 
  collective movement data (e.g. fish schools, bird flocks, baboon troops) by 
  processing 2-dimensional positional data (x,y,t) from GPS trackers or computer
  vision tracking systems, discretizing events of collective motion, calculating
  a set of established metrics that characterize each event, and placing the
  events in a multi-dimensional swarm space constructed from these metrics.
  The swarm space concept, the metrics and data sets included are described in:

The Swash-Backwash Model for the Single Epidemic Wave was developed by Cliff and Haggett (2006) <doi:10.1007/s10109-006-0027-8> to model the velocity of spread of infectious diseases across space. This package enables the calculation of the Swash-Backwash Model for user-supplied panel data on regional infections. The package provides additional functions for bootstrap confidence intervals, country comparison, visualization of results, and data management. Furthermore, it contains several functions for analysis and visualization of (spatial) infection data.

There are numerous places to create and download color
    palettes. These are usually shared in 'Adobe' swatch file formats of
    some kind. There is also often the need to use standard palettes
    developed within an organization to ensure that aesthetics are carried over
    into all projects and output. Now there is a way to read these swatch
    files in R and avoid transcribing or converting color values by hand or
    or with other programs. This package provides functions to read and
    inspect 'Adobe Color' ('ACO'), 'Adobe Swatch Exchange' ('ASE'), 'GIMP Palette' ('GPL'),
    'OpenOffice' palette ('SOC') files and 'KDE Palette' ('colors') files. Detailed
    descriptions of 'Adobe Color' and 'Swatch Exchange' file formats as well as other
    swatch file formats can be found at
