Mohave Ground Squirrel - High Occurrence SDM, DRECP

Jan 24, 2017 (Last modified Jun 16, 2017)
Description:
High Occurrence areas for Mohave Ground Squirrel in the DRECP area. 

Original continuous data from here:
https://databasin.org/datasets/063de529c9dd4635bb9f019cd0c0ca2a

We used the continuous values and the Maximum Sensitivity and Specificity (MSS) value to threshold the layer showing predicted distributions. From here we took values higher than the MSS threshold and classified them into two classes which divided the total predicted area into two equal areas. The higher valued class was used to identify areas with a higher probability compared to the MSS value.

We applied a mask to remove urban, playas, disturbed areas, solar footprints and the Salton Sea.

This dataset has been simplified by removing polygons smaller than 1000675 sq meters.
