Preserving organisms in museums is one way of retaining them for posterity, but almost people agree that it would be nice to keep a few of them live in the wild, too. At the moment, which species survive, which decline to threatened or even status and which succumb for extinction is something of a lottery. WORLDMAP is an easy-to-use software that identified geographical patterns in diversity, rarity and conservation priorities. It can perform a range of specialist biological analysis for infinitely countless numbers of species, with a view to provide biodiversity data for research purposes.

The program divides the surface area of the world into cells, usually arranging in a rectangular grid. WORLDMAP can also predict the likelihood of a hitherto unobserved species found in an area on the basis of theirs known distribution. Given the patchiness of most records, which is a useful trick. Furthermore, it can select complementary areas for preservation. Those are not necessarily cells with the highest individual biodiversity, but for those which, together, maximize what is preserved by picking places with the least overlapping species.

Have you ever tried a strawberry pizza? If you went to Oxnard, the "Strawberry Capital of California," in May, you could!
