Available orangutan layers
Species Shapefile GeoJSON Year Description Source
Bornean orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus) Bornean orangutans 2019 shapefile (ZIP; 3.48 MB) Bornean orangutans 2019 geojson(ZIP; 5.35 MB) 2019 The layer is an update of the original Voigt et al.2018 layer predicting the Bornean orangutan density distribution. In 2021 Voigt & Wich provided an update of the initial predictions, based on forest lost in Borneo. This new layer does not consider hunting in the predictions and hence might have overestimated the numbers of orangutans.
Sumatran orangutan (Pongo abelii) Sumatran orangutans 2014 shapefile (ZIP; 398 KB) Sumatran orangutans 2014 geojson (ZIP; 2.99 MB) 2014 Sumatran orangutan density Wich, S. A., Singleton, I., Nowak, M. G., Utami Atmoko, S. S., Nisam, G., Arif, S. M., ... & Kühl, H. S. (2016). Land-cover changes predict steep declines for the Sumatran orangutan (Pongo abelii).
