Hello esri community,
I have a student access to ArcGIS Pro through my university, but I can't access elevation layers through the ArcGIS online database (code 403) and am also struggling to find one online through search that I could edit to fit NSW, if anybody has a link to an appropriate website where I could download this data I would greatly appreciate it.
My research project is focusing on the following topic: 'A wildlife organisation in NSW has asked you to come up with a relocation plan for breeding members of vulnerable yellow-bellied gliders. Use species distribution models with rainfall and vegetation layers to determine the best location for the facility. It must be in a relatively flat area with 10ha of space that meets the species habitat requirements.'
I have point data from a csv file for species distribution and rainfall and vegetation layers so far.
My second question would be as to how I would locate the area required; I have an assumption that it would involve an overlay analysis but I'm unsure of my next steps in programming this to find an area that fits certain requirements of minimum/maximum precipitation, temperature and slope.
I am very new to this but trying my best to understand and learn 🙂
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @JemimaGreer ,
As for the first part of your question: I was recently also looking for some NSW/Australian elevation data and came across this webpage: https://www.ga.gov.au/scientific-topics/national-location-information/digital-elevation-data
The "packaged data" section lists some elevation datasets you can download. You may find something that suits your needs there as well.
I hope this helps—Good luck with the research project.
