PRESS RELEASE

MAPSS Joins the Esri ArcGIS Marketplace with Protected Area Management for ArcGIS

Pretoria, Gauteng, South Africa, April 2022, Adding Protected Area Management for ArcGIS to Esri’s ArcGIS Marketplace

The ArcGIS Marketplace is a curated digital geospatial channel of system ready apps, content, solutions, and professional services from Esri’s ecosystem of partners for ArcGIS users to identify and discover additional resources for ArcGIS software.

Overcoming the ecological, social, and economic challenges inside and outside the boundaries of protected areas requires evidence-based adaptive management. The large size, complexity, and lack of resources for protected areas limits the ability of management to assess the effectiveness of management actions aimed at addressing these challenges. Geospatial technology can help overcome these limitations by providing managers with the necessary tools for actionable near-real-time monitoring and reporting.

The Protected Area Management Solution for ArcGIS addresses the diverse challenges of monitoring protected areas. The intuitive solution allows users to rapidly configure data collection, analyses, and reporting workflows. Workflows include real-time asset and wildlife tracking, law enforcement and anti-poaching, wildlife and ecology, community outreach programs, as well as monitoring deforestation and wildfires. MAPSS implements, configures, and customizes these workflows based on the specific needs of different organizations. They also provide training and ongoing support to ensure the long-term success of the solution.

“Now more than ever, staff in protected areas need to make informed and effective decisions based on real data. Having a single secure solution to collect, store, analyse, visualise, and report on all their monitoring data is a game changer,” said Andrew Purdon (Director of MAPSS).

M.A.P Scientific Services was designated an ArcGIS Marketplace Provider by earning the ArcGIS System Ready Specialty, as well as having services and/or solutions that utilize ArcGIS software.
