Abstract
An aspect includes aggregating a plurality of disparate datasets into a document store with semi-structured attributes, with each document in the document store specifying a geospatial location and a value of an environmental parameter at the geospatial location. The document store includes a plurality of documents specifying a plurality of different geo spatial locations and different environmental parameters, and the environmental parameters include a climatological parameter. Niche model layers are generated for the different environmental parameters at the geospatial locations. The niche models include a model layer for each of the different environmental parameters. A future geospatial location of a species is predicted based on environmental attributes of the species and contents of the niche model layers. The predicted future geospatial location of the species overlaid on a geographic map is output.
