I am using adehabitatHR in R, trying to calculate home range overlap. I have successfully loaded two .tsv files with location data for two different animals (individuals 70F and 153F respectively). The .tsv files have 5 columns, 2 of which are the latitude and longitude data (DDE and DDS); in decimal degrees. However, when I try to convert to coordinates I get the following error:
coordinates (locs153M) < - c ("DDE", "DDS") Error in .local(obj, ...) : cannot derive coordinates from non-numeric matrix
Here is my script:
> locs07F <- read.delim("C:\\Users\\cpickering\\Documents\\Black Rhino\\Management Plan 2015\\Maps\\Sightings_07F.tsv", header = TRUE)

I'm stumped. Anyone have any ideas?
