A geographic approach to conservation
Conservation professionals are enriching biodiversity preservation efforts with maps and apps optimised for common workflows. Underpinned with analysis-ready geospatial data, GIS helps conservationists:
- Gain insights into complex environmental challenges.
- Better understand the interdependencies of native species and human activity.
- Manage operations effectively and report on conservation impacts.
- Mitigate threats from climate change and unmanaged development.
Conservation Strategies
Conservation technologies
Esri’s geospatial software, ArcGIS, provides a comprehensive set of technology solutions for efficient, science-backed conservation programmes.
Observe
ArcGIS offers integrated mobile apps for planning, conducting, and analysing field observations with integrated workforce management tools to take your mobile work to scale.
Organise
Manage vast datasets with ease in secure cloud or hybrid data stores to power real-time dashboards of conservation operations, enhanced with content from the vast ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World.
Analyse
Discover new conservation dynamics through modelling our natural world with the most comprehensive and open set of analytical methods and spatial algorithms available.
Collaborate
Accelerate effective partnerships and public engagement with shared maps, apps, and stories to inform broad and transparent conservation initiatives working to address wicked problems.
