Habitat use can be characterized by resource selection functions (RSFs) that are proportional to the probability of an area being used by an animal. We highlight two procedures that have recently been used to relate RSFs to population density, dependent upon which field procedures are practical for a species. These new developments allow RSF models to be interfaced with geographical information systems (GIS) to map the probability of use, and ultimately populations, across landscapes.
栖息地利用可以通过资源选择函数（RSF）来表征，这些函数与动物使用某一区域的概率成正比。我们重点介绍了最近用于将RSF与种群密度相关联的两种方法，这取决于哪些野外方法对某一物种可行。这些新进展使RSF模型能够与地理信息系统（GIS）对接，以绘制整个景观中使用概率以及最终种群的分布图。
