<BIG>Half of the GAP Analysis project focuses on vegetation and land types,
but the other half focuses on animal distributions. Using the information
garnered from satellite imagery, it will be possible to predict the distribution
of the various vegetative types in New York State. If an animal's habitat
preferences are known, it should therefore be possible to predict the
distribution of various animal species across the state. The following three
links (<A HREF="http://www.dnr.cornell.edu/gap/land/herp.html">reptiles &
amphibians</A>,
<A HREF="http://www.dnr.cornell.edu/gap/land/bird.htm">birds</A>, and
<A HREF="http://www.dnr.cornell.edu/gap/land/mammal.html">mammals</A>) all
demonstrate how this theoretical knowledge may be applied in the real
world.</BIG>
