Weed Mapping, Monitoring, Controlling: Start Here
Invasive weeds on public and private lands represent a threat to economic health in several ways. Weeds displace native plants, degrade range for agricultural production, reduce critical habitat for wildlife, often limit the appraised value of land and degrade recreational experiences for residents and tourists.
Documenting and monitoring the effectiveness over time of any treatment program is essential and easily managed using GPS technology. CompassTools, Inc. has more than 13 years experience providing GPS-based solutions for GIS and natural resources mapping, and offers an assortment of hardware and software tools to ensure we can configure the right system to meet your unique workflow requirements.
