CLUZ update history

 
   

 

Version 1.6 - August 5th 2005

  • New module called "Import C-Plan data" added.


  • New module called "Create blank abundance table from unit theme" added.


  • New module called "Show portfolio cost and area details" added.


  • New module called "Modify Earmarked units using MARXAN" added.


  • New button called "Change the status of the Best units to Earmarked" added


  • Run MARXAN dialog box changed to allow the user to choose a two step selection process (simulated annealing followed by iterative improvement).


  • "Create bound.dat" module modified so that the boundary length values can be weighted by specifying a polygon shapefile that sets the weighting values.


  • CLUZ modfied so that the target table is updated whenever the status of the planning units is changed through the Change Status panel, not just when the table is opened.

 

Version 1.5 - January 27th 2005

  • New module called "Remove features from abundance and target tables" added.

  • Amended the modules that extract distribution data from shapefiles and import results from MARXAN files so that they are quicker.

 

Version 1.4.1 - November 22nd 2004

  • Fixed bug in "Create target.dat" module so that it correctly reports when a conservation feature has an SPF value of 0 specified in the CLUZ target table. This is only reported for conservation features with a target value that is greater than 0. Setting a SPF value of 0 for a particular conservation feature increases the likelihood that the portfolios identified by MARXAN will not meet the associated target.

 

Version 1.4 - October 21st 2004

  • New module called "Count number of features in each planning unit" added.

 

Version 1.3.1 - September 13th 2004

  • The "Display themes with CLUZ palette" function is modified to display numerical data in a palette containing either 10 or 20 categories.

 

Version 1.3 - September 8th 2004

  • New module that allows specified units to be co-selected when running MARXAN. This involves editing the bound.dat text file and is useful for ensuring that units that contain elements of the same ecological process (eg fish spawning and feeding grounds) are selected together.

  • New module added so that any theme that contains appropriate fields can be displayed using the CLUZ best and summed palettes.

  • The "Show area of Conserved and Earmarked units" has been modified to also show the combined cost value.

  • The Change Status panel has been modified to inform the user if no units have been selected when the Change button is selected.

  • Fixed the bug that affected the display of MARXAN results when the planning unit theme was updated using the "Change Status panel", the "Load previous results module" or the "Earmarked Similarity Tool".

  • Fixed the bugs in the "File Settings" dialog box that stopped CLUZ from checking the format of the inputted files and folders.

  • The Close button on the File Settings dialog box now closes the window automatically if no changes have been made to the settings.

 

Version 1.2 - August 28th 2004

  • Bugs in "Import MARXAN files" and "Load previous results" modules have been fixed.

 

Version 1.11 - August 25th 2004

  • Changed dialog box text that reminds the user to update MARXAN files before running MARXAN if the CLUZ tables have been changed.

  • Updated import table module so that the error messages appear earlier in the importing process.

  • Updated the modules that display and export the target table so that negative target values cannot be used.

 

Version 1.1 - August 12th 2004

  • Dialog boxes made resizeable to allow for users with very high resolution screens

 

Version 1.0 - July 27th 2004

  • First public version made available on the ESRI website
