Abstract
Modeling to Predict Rare Plant Locations Track: Parks and Natural Reserves Author(s): Meghan Williams This project utilizes ArcGIS 9.1 applications to model predicted threatened and endangered plant species locations within Yosemite National Park. Input parameters are solely the GPS-based perimeters of a few documented populations of one species. In particular, ModelBuilder, weighted overlay and custom scripting provide the foundation of the project. Spatial Data Modeler weights of evidence and regression analysis methods are also explored.
