PackageDescription | Estimate tracks of animals tagged with acoustic transmitters. 'yaps'
was introduced in 2017 as a transparent open-source tool to estimate
positions of fish (and other aquatic animals) tagged with acoustic
transmitters. Based on registrations of acoustic transmitters on
hydrophones positioned in a fixed array, 'yaps' enables users to
synchronize the collected data (i.e. correcting for drift in the
internal clocks of the hydrophones/receivers) and subsequently to
estimate tracks of the tagged animals. The paper introducing 'yaps' is
available in open access at Baktoft, Gjelland, Økland & Thygesen (2017)
<doi:10.1038/s41598-017-14278-z>. Also check out our cookbook with a
