Description: Provides tools to analyse animal movement and space-use patterns from
  telemetry data using methods derived from statistical physics. Methods
  span displacement-based approaches, distribution fitting, space-use
  metrics (including the influence of correlations on space-use), network-based
  community detection, and measures of entropy and predictability.
  The package enables characterisation of these patterns across spatial
  and temporal scales, including variation within and among individuals
  (inter- and intraspecific analyses). Outputs include interpretable
  metrics and visualisations to support ecological analysis and the
  investigation of fundamental movement processes. For applications of
  these methods in ecological studies see Rodríguez et al. (2017) 
  <doi:10.1038/s41598-017-00165-0> and Sequeira et al. (2018) 
  <doi:10.1073/pnas.1716137115>.
