Description of tool use: A device for assessing the extent to which a given population or similar unit that is the subject of range-wide conservation management can contribute to the long-term conservation vision for the species. This is best used in combination with the Range-Wide Priority Setting suite of tools.
Experience and expertise required to use the tool: The fundamentals of this tool are relatively easy to grasp and do not require specialist expertise. Some prior experience of using this tool would be an advantage.
Data requirements: This is not suitable for data poor situations as it requires comprehensive data about species distribution, abundance, biology and ecology. However, it may be possible to modify this tool for use in less well-charted circumstances.
Cost: FREE
Strengths and weaknesses, when to use and interpret with caution: Not completed.
