Dear All,

I'm struggling with the kernelbb in adehabitatHR. I'm calculating the Brownian 
Brigdes Home Range (BBHR) for reindeer using GPS-data from a number of 
reindeers. However when I'm using the kernelbb() I get somewhat different 
results depending on the number of burst included in the ltraj used in the 
kernelbb, even though I state the same grid size and extent. So is there a bug 
here or I'm doing things the wrong way, or thinking the wrong way? The function 
seems to fit the HR to the extent of the total data and not to the single 
burst, even though the same extent is defined in the function.

All the best,
Anna Skarin

Here is my script and please download example data from:

https://www.box.com/s/af1a8eeb9b33a26b09ce


ltraj4
ltraj1 <- ltraj4[c(1)]

sig2 <-10
renLiker <- liker(ltraj4, sig2, byburst=TRUE, rangesig1=c(0,20), plotit=F)
renMedian <- median(sapply(renLiker, function(x) x$sig1))


#Here I use the same sig1 in all estimations for comparison
ren1<-kernelbb(ltraj1, sig1=renMedian, sig2, byburst=TRUE, grid=50, extent=0.5)
ren4<-kernelbb(ltraj4, sig1=renMedian, sig2, byburst=TRUE, grid=50, extent=0.5)


#compare this plot with....
plot(ltraj1, spixdf=ren1)

#...this plot! shouldn't they be similar?
spren4 <- estUDm2spixdf(ren4)
plot(ltraj4[c(1)], spixdf=spren4)


#or compare these plots and data...
plot(getverticeshr(ren1, 99), lwd=2)
plot(getverticeshr(ren4$r_RG_08_079, 99),add=TRUE, lwd=2)

ren1vol <-getvolumeUD(ren1)
summary(ren1vol)
ren4vol <-getvolumeUD(ren4)
summary(ren4vol$r_RG_08_079)
