        Ackbar v. 0.2
        #############
        
        A Python program to assess Key Biodiversity Areas (KBA) delimitation.
        The KBA standard requires detailed information from multiple sources in order
        to take a practical decision about the boundaries of a new KBA.
        This program only considers biological data (geographic occurrences of species) 
        to suggests and rank areas where a thorough assessment should be conducted.
        The output is a set of shapefiles of such areas.
