What we do
“From data…
New analytic methods
Ecological research
…to decisions”
Analysis and
decision
support tools
MGET is an ArcGIS toolbox
Over 280 Tools
It can also be invoked from many programming languages
Many users access MGET
from the ModelBuilder
capability of ArcGIS
Installation is easy!
 Free, open-source software
 Requires Windows + ArcGIS + a free Python lib
 For full functionality, you need other free software
 Open-source GIS may be supported in the future
 Easy installer (“just click Next, Next, Next”)
 Download and instructions are here:

The user community as of Nov. 2013
~3800 installs since August 2009

Tour of the tools
Let’s see some examples from each toolset…
The first tools we developed:
generic HDF/netCDF converters
These
evolved
to tools
specific to
popular
products
MGET supports a growing
list of products and algorithms
Let’s look at some
more examples…
Sample 3D and 4D products
Chai, F, RC Dugdale, TH Peng, FP Wilkerson, and RT Barber (2002). One-dimensional ecosystem model
of the equatorial Pacific upwelling system. Part I: model development and silicon and nitrogen cycle.
Deep Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography 49: 2713-2745.
Application: analyzing the movements
of leatherback sea turtles tracked by
satellite telemetry
Click here while viewing the slide show to
see an animation of one of the tracklines
(requires player for .wmv files)
Sampling in 4 dimensions:
lat, lon, depth, time
Black bars are the depths most frequented by turtle on that day.
Research question: are turtles choosing locations and depths based
on mesozooplankton density (ROMS-CoSiNE zz2 variable)?
Leatherback movement modeling
Schick et al (2008) Bayesian
animal movement model
Schick RS, Roberts JJ, Eckert SA, Halpin PN, Bailey H, Chai F, Shi L, Clark JS (accepted)
Pelagic movements of Pacific Leatherback Turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) reveal the
complex role of prey and ocean currents. Movement Ecology.
Detecting SST fronts
 MGET provides tools that detect
oceanographic features in remote
sensing images
 These are some of the most
popular tools in MGET

Detecting mesoscale eddies
 This tool detects eddies in SSH
images collected by NASA/CNES
radar altimeters
Gulf stream eddies
Image from http://www.oc.nps.edu/
SSH anomaly
Okubo-Weiss eddy detection
Example output
Aviso DT-MSLA 27-Jan-1993
Red: Anticyclonic Blue: Cyclonic
Negative W at eddy core
Application: fisheries ecology
 Are tuna and swordfish catches in the northwest
Atlantic correlated with eddies?

A = In anticyclonic eddies
C = In cyclonic eddies
N = Not in eddies
+ = positively correlated with CPUE
̶ = negatively correlated with CPUE
For tunas, CPUE is higher inside eddies than outside eddies (p < 0.05)
For swordfish, CPUE is lower inside eddies than outside eddies (p < 0.05)
Chelton’s eddy database
 MGET also includes tools
that provide easy access to
data products published by
other NASA grantees
 By improving access to these
products from GIS, we hope
to increase use by ecologists

MGET is not just useful for marine species. How about a
terrestrial example involving homo sapiens sapiens habitat?
