  • all occurrence point data must be provided, in decimal degrees coordinates preferred. Ideal format is as a CSV with latitude and longitude values in separate columns where column headers do not contain spaces
  • color preference: gray-scale or colorized map
  • GIS layer preference: terrain data, aerial imagery, hydrography data, basic political subdivisions only, land use, soil type dataset, etc.
