Abstract
Innovative Uses of GIS with GPS in Pest ControlTrack: Environment Management
Author(s): John Wiliams
In the news recently there has been much activity on the topic of pest control. Africanized honeybees attacking and causing serious injury to humans, crop damage from wheat midges and weevils, diseases affecting both humans and animals from mosquitoes and ticks - these are merely a few examples that illustrate why pest tracking and control is such an important topic. This paper will provide an overview of the how combination of GIS and GPS can be used to monitor the activity and spread of pests. Specific case studies will be used.
