Creating spatially or environmentally separated folds for cross-validation to provide a robust error estimation in spatially structured environments; Investigating and visualising the effective range of spatial autocorrelation in continuous raster covariates to find an initial realistic distance band to separate training and testing datasets spatially described in Valavi, R. et al. (2019) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13107>.

Easy access to species distribution data for 6 regions in the world, for a total of 226 anonymised species. These data are described and made available by Elith et al (2020) <doi:10.17161/bi.v15i2.13384> to compare species distribution modelling methods.

Methods for species distribution modeling, that is, predicting the environmental similarity of any site to that of the locations of known occurrences of a species.
