Statement

Collation and integration of all available aquatic and terrestrial biodiversity feature data Irreplaceability analysis using MARXAN conservation planning software (planning units used were 250 ha hexagons). Inclusion of additional important biodiversity areas identified by other sub-provincial conservation planning projects, such as STEP, Wild Coast, Pondoland, etc. into the identification of critical biodiversity areas. Extensive use of experts to map biodiversity hotspot areas, known locations of rare and endangered species and macro ecological corridors.
