Terraformation Using Arrow and ArcGIS Field Maps to Collect Plant Locations for Native Forest Restoration

Terraformation is on a mission. They believe that the most effective means of reducing carbon in the atmosphere is through the planting of trees, which can sequester this tricky element. To target the challenging issue of being able to prove how many trees they plant and nurture to the stages of surviving and thriving, Terraformation has piloted a high-accuracy mobile mapping and dashboard-rich tracking and visualization system at some of its locations in Hawai’i. Learn how they use an Arrow 100+ GNSS receiver with ArcGIS Field Maps and ArcGIS Dashboards in this latest ArcWatch article from Esri.
