Genetic landscapes GIS Toolbox: Tools to map patterns of genetic divergence and diversity.

The Landscape Genetics GIS Toolbox contains tools that run in the Geographic Information System software, ArcGIS^®, to map genetic landscapes and to summarize multiple genetic landscapes as average and variance surfaces. These tools can be used to visualize the distribution of genetic diversity across geographic space and to study associations between patterns of genetic diversity and geographic features or other geo‐referenced environmental data sets. Together, these tools create genetic landscape surfaces directly from tables containing genetic distance or diversity data and sample location coordinates, greatly reducing the complexity of building and analyzing these raster surfaces in a Geographic Information System.
