    Abstract

    Introduction
    Conservation stands for the protection of plants and animals, natural areas, and
    interesting and important structures and buildings, especially from the damaging effects
    of human activity. It guides us to plan a landscape keeping in consideration that biodiversity
    needs to be maintained and enhanced in order to create a well functioned and structured
    ecosystem, while accommodating human oriented land uses that may be determined to that goal.
    The modern science of conservation planning encompasses tools and techniques from many
    disciplines and it benefits from advances ranging from software to satellite and genetics to
    geography. The goal of conservation planning is to keep an ecosystem functioning in the face of
    human orchestrated change and this can be achieved by understanding the social and economic
    context within which the plan must operate. Accurate maps of existing vegetation and other land
    cover should then be used to predict the spatial occurrence of habitat for the selected animals and
    species using habitat models. Additional issues which must be addressed carefully to ensure that
    data at the correct resolution is matched with an appropriate analysis scale to produce a
    meaningful result. Suitable habitats for the species can then be combined with the models for
    other species to delineate important core habitat for a suitable species. Animals movement
    between the core areas can then be assessed and routes can be mapped using connectivity
    approaches. Spatial optimization approaches can be used with a conservation plan as guidelines
    to determine current minimal areas that meet specific thresholds or targets in terms of number of
    species protected, percentage of habitat protected or other metrics. Reserve design or
    conservation areas can be assessed in light of climate change and land use trends to determine
    what the habitat will look like in the future and what other areas needs to be considered to
    maintain species and ecosystem. The biophysical context-topography vegetation, climate, and
    wildlife- determines the appropriate data and approaches that are used.
