MultiscaleSCP: Multiscale Systematic Conservation Planning Across Nested H3
Grids
Provides tools for multiscale systematic conservation planning
using the H3 hierarchical hexagonal grid system (Uber Technologies (2024)
<https://h3geo.org>) and the 'prioritizr' package (Hanson et al. (2025)
<doi:10.1111/cobi.14376>). Supports the definition and solution of
conservation problems across nested H3 resolutions with resolution-specific
features, costs, and management attributes, including cross-scale
connectivity penalties derived from parent-child relationships. Also
includes utilities to evaluate solutions using multiscale-aware diagnostics
and to post-process optimization outputs into alternative area-targeted
conservation scenarios.
