Description

sdmTMB is a really interesting package for spatiotemporal modeling using TMB as the underlying engine. Some modelbased functions already work, some do not. Would be great to have it incorporated! Especially if there was a smooth way to pull space and time in ultimately for the by statements. Note, it already works well with ggeffects and its vignettes use ggeffects in a few places.

Research direction

Start by reviewing which modelbased functions already work with sdmTMB and comparing them with the package's vignettes and ggeffects examples. Clarify the unsupported functions and the intended handling of spatial and temporal terms in by statements; done means the agreed sdmTMB support scope is implemented and verified.
