Description:
Abstract:
A compiled density of threatened and endangered species built around 2000m wide hexagonal cells. The dataset was created by generating a blank hex grid, intersecting it with the May 2005 CNDDB dataset, and then counting the number if unique species from the CNDDB within each Hex cell.
Purpose:
General T & E species density analysis, visualization, and descriptive use.
