I have a new tool out that can be used to generate background/available points for habitat modeling (resource selection functions) in ArcMap. It should work in ArcGIS Pro as well since it is entirely built within ModelBuilder and doesn't rely on any python. The user provides 1) their used points (e.g. occurrences), 2) a buffer from which available points can be selected, and 3) the ratio of used to available points. The tool will also combine multiple files into a single file using the filename to differentiate. This tool would be useful to wildlife biologists and others who work with radio-collar data and want a simple tool that runs in GIS. You can download the tool at https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=f5515ef257774ed790b9b64cf5d50fc5.
With this blog I intend to share GIS, remote sensing, and spatial analysis tips, experiences, and techniques with others. Most of my work is in the field of Landscape Ecology, so there is a focus on ecological applications. Postings include tips and suggestions for data processing and day-to-day GIS tasks, links to my GIS tools and approaches, and links to scientific papers that I've been involved in.
