This raster map represents the presence/absence of predicted habitat of a single avian species. Since it is one of 40 species whose predicted habitats were modeled, the processes used to create this raster map may differ from other species in this dataset. Processes were unique because while a majority of models incorporated land use/land cover data as the primary input, several other environmental features were incorporated for specific species depending on life history and habitat requirements noted both in published literature and expert review with biologists.
