Abstract: | Biodiverse is a tool for the spatial analysis of diversity using indices based on taxonomic, phylogenetic and matrix-based (e.g. genetic distance) relationships, as well as related environmental and temporal variations. Biodiverse supports four processes: 1. linked visualisation of data distributions in geographic, taxonomic, phylogenetic and matrix spaces; 2. spatial moving window analyses including richness, endemism, phylogenetic diversity and beta diversity; 3. spatially constrained agglomerative cluster analyses; and 4. randomisations for hypothesis testing. Biodiverse is open-source and supports user developed extensions. It can be used both through a graphical user interface (GUI) and through user written scripts. Currently more than 170 indices are supported. [Information of the supplier] |
