Rohweder, Jason, 2018, GAP Species Models - Focal Birds code, U.S. Geological Survey code release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9FBI4U1.
Summary
This tool was developed to model species potential occurrences for several focal bird species classified as bottomland hardwood, forested riparian, or grassland birds. This tool was developed using existing scripts developed by the USGS GAP Analysis program ( https://gapanalysis.usgs.gov/species/data/ ). These scripts were modified to be able to calculate potential occurrence values for multiple species at once and to accommodate the alteration of the reclass tables to include a more complex habitat preference scoring system than the binary 1/0 values currently provided by the GAP program. The output of the tool consists of potential species occurrence rasters for each species, for each focal hydrologic unit code (HUC) selected, [...]

The output of the tool consists of potential species occurrence rasters for each species, for each focal hydrologic unit code (HUC) selected, and also a combined output including all bird species and HUCs queried.
