Stef, Nicolas, Thanks for your help! I think I found the problem: when I was running the code I posted, I still add the " dataset_multiple_trips_LB.csv" in the working directory so the filelist and rbind functions were probably taking it into account and messing up with the rest of the code. Because by removing the previous versions of this file I got it to work now. Just out of curiosity though, what should you do if you happen to have dates/times that are exactly the same between individuals, and you do not want to remove those points? Elodie

Turns out, in the meantime I finally realized that my id column for some reasons contained 21 levels instead of 20 (I have 20 individuals) (the problem occurred because one of the level was "id", ie the column name, even though I am not sure how that happened...). So I fixed this problem and now my id column is alright (with 20 levels as I wanted); however, now when I run the code again, it comes up with a new error: " Error in as.ltraj(xy = data[, c("X.Latitude", "X.Longitude")], date = data$timestamp,? :? non unique dates for a given burst". I have looked at the forums and saw that this situation could occur when the date format was not set right (e.g. %y instead of %y) but I carefully checked my format and cannot see any mistake there! Here is my new code #set working directory setwd("C:/Users/Elodie/Documents/Deakin/Data analysis/GPS data analysis/Processed LB multiple tracks") file_list<-list.files(pattern="*.csv", full.names=TRUE) require(data.table) dataset = rbindlist(lapply( file_list, fread )) write.csv(dataset, file = "dataset_multiple_trips_LB.csv", row.names = F) data<-read.csv("dataset_multiple_trips_LB.csv", header=T) ## FOR SOME REASON, I do not understand why R as automoatically put an "X" in front of some column names (like Date, Time, Latitude, Longitude) but not in front of all of #them (the column name for id stayed as is...) so I just used the names as they appeared in my data frame... timestamp <- as.POSIXct(strptime(as.character(paste(data$X.Date, data$X.Time)),"%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S"), "GMT") data <- data.frame(data, timestamp = timestamp) everybody<-as.ltraj(xy = data[,c("X.Latitude","X.Longitude")], date = data$timestamp, id = data$id) Perhaps it could help if I included some of the data so you can see how it looks like: id???

P-S: Fyi, when I apply the drop_level on the code as it was before I fixed the number of levels, I got this: warnings() Warning messages: 1: In Ops.factor(x1$x, x2$x) : - not meaningful for factors 2: In Ops.factor(x1$y, x2$y) : - not meaningful for factors 3: In Ops.factor(x$x, x$x[1]) : - not meaningful for factors 4: In Ops.factor(x$y, x$y[1]) : - not meaningful for factors 5: In Ops.factor(x1$x, x2$x) : - not meaningful for factors 6: In Ops.factor(x1$y, x2$y) : - not meaningful for factors......

I am working with GPS data. I have got 20 different files with tracks that I have merged together; it looks like I have successfully created a POSIXct column that I added to the dataframe and I have one column with latitude and one with longitude, as well as an ID column that has the ID of my individual birds; however, when I use the as.ltraj function, I get the following error: "Error in as.ltraj(xy = data_used[, c("latitude", "longitude")], date = data_used$timestamp,? : ? some id's are not present in the data" I tried different things (without naming the columns first and with column names, with or without "-" in the ID numbers, using just the relevant columns with no additional information.) and nothing is fixing the problem. I also do not understand the error message because when I check the length of the relevant columns, there are the same.

I suspect that the type of your variables is not well defined. You should use str(data) to see the type of your data. In particular, latitudes and longitude should not be factor variables. In general R add some X and Y for columns with repeated names, but I wonder what happen here. Maybe if you need more help, you could send a short part of your file to the list or directly to me. I could have a look with the code and the file. It is up to you. Cheers, Nicolas Le 08/07/2014 11:31, Elodie Camprasse a ?crit : > Nicolas, > Thanks heaps for the quick reply!
