Description:
PronghornResidentPopulationArea is an ESRI SDE Feature Class showing Resident Population Area, an area that provides year round range for a population of pronghorns. The resident animals use all of the area all year long, it cannot be subdivided into seasonal ranges. A resident population may be found within the overall range of a larger, migratory population. This information was derived from field personnel. A variety of data capture techniques were used including drawing on mylar overlays at 1:50,000 scale USGS county mapsheets and implementation of the SmartBoard Interactive Whiteboard using stand-up, real-time digitizing at various scales (Cowardin, M., M. Flenner. March 2003. Maximizing Mapping Resources. GeoWorld 16(3):32-35).
