CT & ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT AND RESEARCH
• INVALUABLE TOOL FOR THE DIGITAL COLLECTION OF FIELD DATA (with/without co-ordinates) e.g. Biodiversity monitoring; VCA...
• CATEGORISED DATA INPUT (Checklists or Icons) – UNSKILLED OR EVEN ILLITERATE FIELD WORKERS CAN
RECORD DATA WITH MINIMAL TRAINING– NO MORE SPELLING/CODE ERRORS (e.g. panmax;
p.maximum; pmax etc.)
• PDA WITH INTEGRATED GPS – NO NEED FOR ADDITIONAL GPS SKILLS, CT CONTROLS GPS FUNCTIONING
• MOVING MAPS ON PDA IN THE FIELD – Never get lost again!
• ENPOWER FIELD RANGERS THROUGH TECHNOLOGY – DIRECTLY INVOLVED IN THE MANAGEMENT OF PARKS
