CorridorDesigner Workshops
We offered full day training workshops throughout Arizona and the United States in Fall 2007. At the workshops, we provided an overview of current ecological knowledge and practice regarding corridor design, and gave demos designing corridors for real species in real landscapes using ArcGIS tools.
Since we are no longer giving workshops, we have included PDF versions of the presentations we gave at our workshops. In the next several weeks, we hope to post video files which pair our presentations with audio recorded at our last workshop.
Workshop workbook
For those who attended our workshops in fall 2007, we have made available the workbook from our last workshop in Watsonville, California, on 7 December 2007. For those who did not attend a workshop, we recommend downloading the latest copies of the conceptual steps and CorridorDesigner tutorial on the downloads page.
