Step 2: Select terminals within each wildland block as start and end points for modeling the corridor
The starting and ending points of a corridor can greatly impact the location of the modeled corridor. A terminus is a part of a wildland block that forms one end of a modeled corridor. You can define it as a point (or pixel), a linear edge (e.g., the wildland boundary), or a patch (population patch or breeding patch). Often there is more than one potential terminus in each wildland block.
We discuss this step further in Defining end points for corridors.
