A Reproducible, Data-Driven Approach to Mapping Species Distributions Using Presence-Only Data and Biogeographic Templates. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study presents a novel, data‐driven approach for mapping species' extent of occurrence (EOO) that addresses the issues of reproducibility and precision of expert‐derived range maps. By combining presence‐only data with the operational units of a biogeographic template within a consistent quantitative framework, our approach generates spatially ...
