Kernel Density Estimate of Species Distributions#This shows an example of a neighbors-based query (in particular a kernel density estimate) on geospatial data, using a Ball Tree built upon the Haversine distance metric – i.e. distances over points in latitude/longitude. The dataset is provided by Phillips et. al. (2006). If available, the example uses basemap to plot the coast lines and national boundaries of South America.
This example does not perform any learning over the data (see Species distribution modeling for an example of classification based on the attributes in this dataset). It simply shows the kernel density estimate of observed data points in geospatial coordinates.
The two species are:
“Bradypus variegatus” , the Brown-throated Sloth.
“Microryzomys minutus” , also known as the Forest Small Rice Rat, a rodent that lives in Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela.
