Where is the grazing resource depleted?
Once that is done then we need to produce output - we produce three output files here - the first with the goose information at individual level. The second is field information about where the geese forage. In both cases the data is written to these files when between start and end year, and start and end day (inclusive).
The third output is the a description of the population sizes of each type of goose we simulate (these are numbers extant in the area being simulated).
Speed-up Identified as the program bottleneck. The problem is that in most cases this is called we run all the way to the end of the vector and don't find our polygon.
