Abstract: Spatial layout of nature reserves is important in conservation planning, but existing studies mostly ignored spatial considerations. This paper presents an integer programming approach to determine a reserve network with maximum accessibility while providing full protection to targeted species. We present an empirical application to endangered/threatened birds in Illinois.
