A Resources Information Standards
Committee (RISC[formerly RIC]) training course
for BC Wildlife Habitat Ratings Standards has been developed. This training
course reviews and explains the provincial standards presented in the
RISC manual "BC Wildlife Habitat Rating Standards" (RIC 1999).
The course covers the standards required for assessing wildlife habitat
and applying capability and suitability ratings to terrestrial ecosystem
map units, including:
- wildlife habitat rating criteria
- project planning and management
- development of species-habitat models
- field sampling procedures
- finalizing habitat ratings
Mapping and Geographical Information System procedures are not included.
This course is required for those undertaking wildlife habitat ratings
mapping projects in British Columbia.
