spatsoc: Group Animal Relocation Data by Spatial and Temporal Relationship and Measure Intragroup Social Dynamics

Detects spatial and temporal groups in GPS relocations (Robitaille et al. (2019) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13215>). It can be used to convert GPS relocations to gambit-of-the-group format to build proximity-based social networks, and perform data-stream randomization methods suitable for GPS data. Also provides measures of intragroup social dynamics including distance and direction to leaders, centroids and nearest neighbours.
