Abstract

Geospatial Excellence in Weed Control - Providing a National Picture
Track: Conservation
Authors: Ann De Schutter, Robyn Crisford

DOC are making use of spatial technology in combatting invasive plants, and restoring native eco-systems. Spatial representation is key when visualizing the nature and extent of the problem, and enables national collaboration. The Weeds System provides business-centric workflows that allow users to enter surveys, infestations and controls. Relationships enable us to better understand the time, effort and effectiveness. This system, now being used nationally, improves results and reduces costs.
