The City of Austin developed ArcGIS Online (AGO) maps and apps to help protect habitat for endangered species in a more efficient and business friendly manner. AGO is being used by various Balcones Canyonlands Preserve managing partners and utility companies with critical infrastructure in endangered species habitat. This technology results in savings for both staff time and operating expenses and helps to prevent accidental disturbance or destruction of endangered species habitat.
