I have a set of GPS tracks for one primate troop exported as a single .gpx file. I need that movement data turned into two complementary home-range products in ArcGIS: • a Minimum Convex Polygon (95 % MCP) • a Kernel Density Estimate surface (KDE) with clearly documented bandwidth choice Once the ranges are defined, I also need the extent and proportion of vegetation cover inside each range calculated from a recent NDVI layer (you may pull the most suitable free satellite scene or suggest one if licensing is an issue). Final outputs should be two ready-to-print map layouts in A4 PDF, the working ArcGIS project with cleanly organised layers, and a brief methods note so the steps can be replicated for an educational demonstration. Please show one or two examples of similar spatial ecology or NDVI work you have done so I can quickly gauge fit. No full proposals required at this stage—solid past work speaks louder.

Hi, I'm a geologist with a postgraduate degree in GIS and advanced certification in ArcGIS. I'm an expert in cartography and spatial analysis. I possess data processing skills that allow me to perform complex analyses and obtain accurate results. I have experience in land use planning and cadastral management. I'm proficient in various software such as ArcGIS Pro, ArcMap, QGIS, Global Mapper, and Google Earth Pro. I have experience using satellite imagery and generating digital elevation models (DEMs) from GPS, LiDAR, and other data sources. I'm an expert in data processing and digitization. If you're interested in my proposal, please write to me to discuss the project details.

Hi there, I'm Raf, and your project, "Primate Home Range NDVI Mapping," immediately caught my eye. I specialize in transforming raw GPS tracks from .gpx files into actionable geospatial insights like 95% MCPs and KDE surfaces with clearly documented bandwidth. Calculating vegetation cover using NDVI within these ranges, along with producing ready-to-print A4 PDFs, a clean ArcGIS project, and a methods note for replication, is squarely within my expertise. My approach would be: * **1. Data Ingestion & Validation:** Convert your .gpx data into a geodatabase feature class, ensuring projection and accuracy. * **2. Home Range Delineation:** Generate 95% MCPs and KDEs, meticulously documenting bandwidth selection for KDE. * **3. NDVI Integration & Analysis:** Acquire and process a suitable NDVI layer, then calculate vegetation extent and proportion within each defined home range. * **4. Deliverables & Documentation:** Produce A4 map layouts, the organized ArcGIS project, and your replication methods note. I've successfully completed similar spatial ecology projects, including human-wildlife conflict mapping using GPS telemetry and habitat suitability analysis with various satellite indices. To demonstrate my precision, I'm happy to process 10-15 points from your .gpx file as a preliminary sample, showcasing my data handling and initial output quality at no charge. Let's connect for a quick chat to discuss this further and get started right away.

I will process your primate troop GPX movement data into high-precision home-range models and NDVI vegetation analyses in ArcGIS Pro. I begin by importing and filtering your raw .gpx track points, projecting coordinate systems accurately, and computing both the 95% Minimum Convex Polygon (MCP) boundary and the Kernel Density Estimate (KDE) surface with a mathematically justified, documented bandwidth selection. Next, I will acquire cloud-free Sentinel-2 or Landsat imagery, calculate the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), and extract zonal statistics to determine the exact extent and proportional coverage of vegetation within both home ranges. We will initiate this with a 50% first milestone released after I deliver the draft MCP and KDE vector boundary overlays for your review checkpoint. Upon your confirmation, I will produce two publication-quality A4 PDF map layouts with professional cartographic elements, the clean ArcGIS project package with structured layer hierarchies, and a step-by-step methods document formatted for educational replication within the 7-day working timeline. My quote is 3450 INR, below the current lowest bid of 3750 INR. Ridwaan M.
