Zonation
Zonation is a spatial conservation prioritization framework for large-scale conservation planning. It identifies areas, or landscapes, important for retaining high habitat quality and connectivity for multiple biodiversity features (eg. species), providing a quantitative method for enhancing species' long term persistence.
Available
Zonation is available in Puhti with following versions:
- 5.0.0 (including Graphical User Interface)
