aniprocess vs soilDBdata

aniprocess is the signal-processing half of the animovement ecosystem for animal movement data — smoothing, outlier flagging and gap handling for tracking coordinates. Version 0.3.0 restructured the entire public interface into three tiers: bare functions over a vector or a frame of coordinate columns, *_with() to select a method by name, and *_across() to apply one to a whole aniframe. Two functions were removed rather than deprecated, and argument names were normalized across the package.

The redesign pushes aniframe metadata into the processing layer — *_across() reads sampling rate and the time column off the object instead of asking the caller, which is the division of labour aniframe's own class work assumes. Defaults are shifting toward not destroying information: filters preserve gaps unless inferring across them is the point, and a missing confidence score now warns rather than being read as a poor one. The bug fixes tell a consistent per-group story, with speed computed within each track so a step never forms across a track boundary.

With the across-style API landed and issue #29 (filter_by_pose) still open, the next release most likely extends the same three-tier pattern to pose data rather than adding more filters.
