THE CHALLENGE
Transfrontier landscapes are inherently large tracts of land with diverse fauna, flora and human societies. Collaborative planning and management of these transfrontier conservation areas require decisions at various political levels, spatial scales, temporal scales and disciplines. This in turn requires information (processed data) as well as common understanding of the larger spatial landscape.
OUR SOLUTION
Our Geographic Information System (GIS) services support conservation authorities and practitioners by providing limited access to selected spatial data sets and showcasing featured maps and applications. These resources help in the management of protected landscapes and contribute to informed decision-making.
Through our public-facing GIS services, you can explore a few key datasets and maps designed to support conservation planning and environmental initiatives. Available resources include:
Open Data Portal (non-restricted datasets for download)
ArcGIS Enterprise Portal (featuring interactive maps and web applications).
If you require further assistance or specific data, please contact us at: maps@peaceparks.org.
With the support of ESRI’s Conservation Programme grant, we utilise advanced GIS technology to contribute to conservation efforts. For more information, visit the ESRI South Africa Conservation page.
