Species listing tool #377

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Develop a tool that allows the user to generate a list of species either at a 
user-specified map click, or within a polygon drawn on the map. 

Thoughts/issues
1. Distinguish between species known to occur (from occurrence data) and 
predicted to occur (two lists: one "known", one "predicted"
2. Predictions can be current, future, past and based on distribution models
3. Overall this probably requires the generation of presence-absence models, 
unless there is a smarter way of doing this probabilistically from full models 
(in fact this is ideal - can we provide an estimate of the probability of 
occurrence - easy for point clicks, but perhaps more difficult for a polygon). 
4. "Predicted" list can be in the form of a text file that is downloaded as a 
result of the click or polygon action, perhaps sorted by year first:
year, species, probability
1950,Lemur catta,0.75
1950,Hapilemur griseus,0.48
2000,Hapilemur griseus,0.38
2080,Hapilemur griseus,0.32

Overall, this requires additional thought and discussion. This is an 
enhancement promised in the 2010 MacArthur proposal.

Update: Prototype implemented through MacArthur:
http://maps.rebioma.net

Question now, whether or not to proceed with additional listing tools on 
Rebioma portal (through GWT)?
