Résumé

Earth Observation has revolutionised the mapping of species; however, habitat maps are often categorical, static representations of reality that result in issues relating to accurate change estimation and application to multiple species. We must break the habit of simplistic discrete classes of habitat and derive continuous, interval value, change-sensitive, habitat descriptions with an ability to drive hypotheses.
