This data bundle contains the final outputs from a VisTrails/SAHM workflow to model the potential distribution of 5 rare plants (Aliciella formosa, Sclerocactus cloverae, Townsendia gypsophila, Astragalus ripleyi, and Cymopterus spellenbergii) in northern New Mexico. These models utilized field data of spatially thinned occurrence locations and random background locations or random plus absence locations for the 5 species. Predictors included but were not limited to soil characteristics, topography, percent tree cover, bare ground, and continuous heat-insolation load index rasters. Details about both occurrence data and predictor inputs are included in the associated manuscript and Source Info section of this metadata. We developed models using five algorithms with VisTrails: Software for Assisted Habitat Modeling [SAHM 2.1.2], and combined these to create an ensemble of models for each species. For more information on the model creation process and interpretation of the final maps, see "Process Step" section. The bundle documentation files are: 1) 'NMrareplant_SDM_project_metadata.xml' (this file) which contains FGDC metadata describing the archive bundle. 2) Ensemble geotiff for each of the 5 modeled species: 'Code_vX_HML.tif' where code is the first two letters of the genus and species and X is the iteration of the final model product. 3) Tailored raster predictor layers not otherwise publicly available that were used during the modeling process and their corresponding metadata
