Reviewing the Workflow Results

[!NOTE] 📹 Video Reference 18:42 Review the Workflow Results

Once all steps in the Galaxy history have turned green, the results are ready for exploration and analysis.

Visualizing Output in Galaxy

To view the results of any step (especially Step 8: Flag Outliers):

  1. Click on the dataset name in the history panel.
  2. Select the Eye Icon (View Data).
  3. Galaxy will display a preview of the resulting table.

Accessing the Result Files

Each workflow step produces a text file containing a direct link to the actual results. In this use case, the results are provided in CSV format.

  • users can follow the link to download the final CSV file for use in the own local R or Python environments.

Interpreting Outlier Classifications

The final output includes all extracted environmental predictors and a classification for each record based on the strength of evidence provided by the ensemble methods:

[!TIP] Minor Outliers

  • Poor Outlier
  • Moderate Outlier
  • Fair Outlier

[!WARNING] Major Outliers

  • Very Strong Outlier
  • Perfect Outlier
  • Not an Outlier

Researchers can use these flags to create a more robust “cleaned” dataset for their final Species Distribution Models.
