This data bundle contains some of the inputs, all of the processing instructions and all outputs from two VisTrails/SAHM workflows, one creating a global habitat suitability model for buffelgrass and another creating a habitat suitability model for buffelgrass in Saguaro National Park, AZ. The bundle documentation files are: 1) '_archive_bundle_metadata.xml' (this file) which contains FGDC metadata describing the archive bundle. 2) 'modelSelectionCV_MakeAbsPntsFilt100_2.csv' containing the field data used as inputs for the Saguaro National Park model. 3) '_archive_raster_inputs.csv' a list of the raster inputs that were used to generate these model results. These are not included in the archive bundle due to size...
