EarthMatters.Org is a non-profit organization engaged in finding
practical solutions to natural resource conflicts, particularly when
exploitation affects the distribution of plants and animals, or
encroaches on their habitat. We combine conventional natural history
observations with information technology and remote sensing tools to
implement meaningful conservation action at the local and institutional
levels.
|
EarthMatters.Org utilizes the latest satellite-based surveying and
mapping techniques (Global Positioning System or GPS) to create digital
views of regional and local aspects related to environmental problems.
Frequent updates to geo-referenced databases (Geographic Information
System or GIS) facilitate the design of practical alternatives to manage
and protect wildlife, reformulate projects, and support the evaluation
of habitat change.
|
EarthMatters.Org
is firmly committed to involve local people in
conservation management. Our international team combines state of the
art tools and multidisciplinary training with a cooperative extension
approach that encourages informed grassroots participation. We educate
and also learn from local residents while conducting hands-on
investigations through cooperative arrangements secured with
institutions, local organizations, and international partnerships.
