Details:
Biodiverse links phylogenies to species location data, and enables users to visually explore phylogenetic and spatial relationships using a split-screen tree-map format. Its functions include:
(1) visualisation of data distributions in geographic, taxonomic, phylogenetic and matrix spaces;
(2) spatial analyses including phylogenetic diversity, phylogenetic endemism and phylogenetic beta diversity;
(3) spatially constrained cluster analyses; and
(4) randomisations for hypothesis testing.
