Kelsi Schwind joined us on the GEOTalks GIS Podcast to share how GIS can propel conservation and increase awareness about mapping resources from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. We discuss how the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, the Landscape Ecology Program, and Texas’s resource, the Ecological Mapping Systems (EMS), reflect how the state uses GIS for research and conservation.
Kelsi highlighted how her method for extracting canyons has enabled her team to perform thorough research on imperiled Bigtooth maple communities and establish automation to research this species for years. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department is using the geospatial data collected in the Bigtooth maple research to enhance and develop Texas’s mapping resources, including its extensive library of land cover classifications.
