Fig. 1. Example of a simulated track of an elephant seal. (A) A Global Positioning
System (GPS)-like track containing two area-restricted searching (ARS) zones.
(B) This shows the track after the introduction of spatial error and temporal
sub-sampling, as obtained in real deployments using the Argos tracking
technique. (C) The same track after the filtering and the interpolation
process (see Materials and methods for details).
