TrackPlot Enhancements: Support for Multiple Animal Tracks and Gyros

Abstract

The long term goal of this work is to create software to support the visualization and kinematic analysis of marine animal movements derived from archival tag data. Tags are supported that have sensors for pressure, acceleration, magnetics and optionally, rotations. The software will create pseudotracks and these may be georeferenced given appropriate georeferencing information. With the use of gyros dynamic accelerations may be computed and visualized.
