Maps and GIS Analysis
KSNPC uses Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for tasks ranging from species tracking and monitoring to preserve design and management. GIS is a system of computer software, hardware, data and trained personnel that allows for data creation, modification and analysis. Data in the system are stored in real world coordinates that enable us to integrate data from other agencies and organizations. The modeling and mapping capabilities of a GIS provide us with a means of developing predictive models that help identify potential species habitat and target field surveys, improved environmental review and data request procedures, expanded data sharing capabilities, enhanced preserve designs, improved preserve management and enable us to create higher quality cartographic products.
