One important step in binary modeling of environmental problems is the generation of absence-datasets that are traditionally generated by random sampling and can undermine the quality of outputs. To solve this problem, this study by Seyed Amir Naghibi, Hossein Hashemi and Biswajeet Pradhand, develops the Absence Point Generation (APG) toolbox which is a Python-based ArcGIS toolbox for automated
