Data from: Urban coyote spatiotemporal overlap with humans is associated with environmental characteristics not human sociodemographics

This data was used to analyze the relationship between environmental and
societal characteristics and overlap with humans in coyotes (Canis
latrans). The dataset includes environmental characteristics (proportion
open space, proportion impervious cover) and societal characteristics
(human population density, median income, proportion of White residents)
in the vicinity of high-resolution GPS data collected from coyotes in the
Chicago metropolitan area. These characteristics were summarized at three
scales surrounding each GPS location: 30 m
("data_30_df_6-5-25.rdata"), 100 m
("data_100_df_6-5-25.rdata"), and 500 m
("data_500_df_6-5-25.rdata"). We estimated overlap by
quantifying coyotes’ spatial selection for human population density during
periods of temporal overlap, i.e., periods when coyotes and humans were
active, using step-selection analysis.
