African Parks: Protected Area Management

African Parks takes on the complete responsibility for rehabilitation and long-term management of 15 national parks on the continent, in partnership with governments and local communities. The non-profit conservation organization works to conserve Africa’s wildlife and remaining wild areas, secure vast landscapes and carry out the necessary activities needed to protect the parks and their wildlife for the benefit of people. Through the help of GIS, the team can analyze and understand wildlife movements and various threats to predict where poachers may strike next. This use of GIS for conservation intelligence gives park rangers the additional tools they need to go beyond analysis of the past – dynamically-assessing the present and transforming data for management to make decisions that realign conservation with its intended outcomes, ensuring that each park is ecologically, socially, and financially sustainable in the long-term.
