Summary
This dataset was developed to model habitat suitability for two ungulate species on the island of Lanai. Slope was derived from a 10-m resolution DEM raster dataset created by NOAA. This dataset, in addition to other datasets, was used to create the habitat suitability models. Datasets and indices derived for use in modeling efforts, as well as suitability models, are included within this data release.
