Presentation

FragScape is a QGIS 3 plugin.

Its purpose is to compute landscape fragmentation metrics defined by Jaeger (Jaeger 2000). Among these metrics, effective mesh size has been widely used to quantify landscape fragmentation.

FragScape defines a 4 steps process from raw data to computed metrics and allow user to save configuration so that results can be reproduced with same context.

It has been developed by Mathieu Chailloux at INRAE, for the French ecological network resource center (driven by French ministry of ecology).
