Datasets for Comparison of methods for estimating omnidirectional landscape connectivity

This repository holds the raster data and the configuration files (.ini) files used to create the simulated resistance grids and omnidirectional connectivity methods in \"Comparison of methods for estimating omnidirectional landscape connectivity\".

There are reisstance grids for each of the two sections (simulated resistance grids and omnidirectional connectivity methods) and .ini files for each run with each method (point, wall-to-wall, and omniscape. The .ini files can be run in Julia computing language.

Ecological connectivity is an important component of wildlife conservation. Omnidirectional circuit theory algorithms model the flow of electric current across a resistance grid from all directions, making them particularly useful for modeling connectivity of multiple or widespread species, or when source and destination sites are not specified, such as in the case of continuously distributed species.

Objectives. We compared three published omnidirectional connectivity methods...
