Habitat suitability of each species was modelled. The output from this is a habitat suitability map where the values range from 0.0 to 1.0 which represent lowest and highest suitability respectively. These proabilistic values were then transformed into binary values - 0 and 1 which represent unsuitable and suitable habitat using an optimal threshold. The threshold was selected using the sensitivity‐specificity sum maximisation approach. The binary habitat suitability were then summed to result in the 'summed_habitat suitability.tif' file. The value ranges from 0 to 3. Here, 0 indicates that the pixel does not contain suitable for any species while 3 indicates the pixel contains suitable habitat for 3 species. Note, currently only 3 species have been analysed. The 'summed_habitat suitability.tif' file is a raster of geotiff format with spatial resolution of 250 m and coordinate system of MGI / Austria Lambert (EPSG:31287).
Habitat connectivity of each species was modelled. The output from this is a habitat connectivity map where the values range from 0.0 to N. Here, N varies from species to species. Thus, the results of were scaled from their original values to 0.0-1.0. The rescaled habtiat connectivity were then averaged to result in the 'average_habitat connectivity.tif' file. The value ranges from 0.0 to 0.2386 which indicate lowest and highest connectivity. The 'average_habitat connectivity.tif' file is a raster of geotiff format with spatial resolution of 250 m and coordinate system of MGI / Austria Lambert (EPSG:31287).
