abstract: Systematic conservation prioritization using mixed integer linear programming
(MILP). It provides a flexible interface for building and solving conservation planning
problems. Once built, conservation planning problems can be solved using a variety
of commercial and open-source exact algorithm solvers. By using exact algorithm
solvers, solutions can be generated that are guaranteed to be optimal (or within
a pre-specified optimality gap). Furthermore, conservation problems can be constructed
to optimize the spatial allocation of different management actions or zones, meaning
that conservation practitioners can identify solutions that benefit multiple stakeholders.
To solve large-scale or complex conservation planning problems, users should install
the Gurobi optimization software (available from ) and
the 'gurobi' R package (see Gurobi Installation Guide vignette for details). Users
can also install the IBM CPLEX software ()
and the 'cplexAPI' R package (available at ).
Additionally, the 'rcbc' R package (available at )
can be used to generate solutions using the CBC optimization software ().
