Treatment of the received dataset
We imported the
received dataset
with modifications as follows to better combine with other atlases or to match publication cited above:
Mapped the following two species that were not mapped in the published book because their breeding evidence during the atlas period is clearly described in the "Possible Breeders and Misc. Species" section: Black Rail and Chuck-will's-widow.
