Overview

About

Maintained by Jeffrey O HansonFirst published 2021-05-276 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Decision support tool for prioritizing sites for ecological surveys based on their potential to improve plans for conserving biodiversity (e.g. plans for establishing protected areas). Given a set of sites that could potentially be acquired for conservation management, it can be used to generate and evaluate plans for surveying additional sites. Specifically, plans for ecological surveys can be generated using various conventional approaches (e.g. maximizing expected species richness, geographic coverage, diversity of sampled environmental algorithms. After generating such survey plans, they can be evaluated using conditions) and maximizing value of information. Please note that several functions depend on the 'Gurobi' optimization software (available from https://www.gurobi.com). Additionally, the 'JAGS' software (available from https://mcmc-jags.sourceforge.io/) is required to fit hierarchical generalized linear models. For further details, see Hanson et al. (2023) doi:10.1111/1365-2664.14309.

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
