As part of the Environment & Natural Resources Special Interest Group meeting at the 2021 Esri User Conference, Tennessee State Parks shares how their COVID-19 response work has fueled their web and mobile GIS initiatives moving forward. Rachel Schultz, GIS lead with Tennessee Bureau of Parks & Conservation, explains how they developed GIS solutions during the pandemic to make data driven decisions regarding visitation numbers, personal protective equipment, and COVID-19 cases in the parks. The extremely positive response to these apps led them to shift from keeping GIS in the hands of only a few analysts to now empowering all parks staff to become lightweight ArcGIS users.
Andrew McDonagh, GIS specialist for Tennessee Bureau of Parks & Conservation, explores how web GIS has become an enterprise solution for the parks, allowing them to create a leadership dashboard to provide transparency and track progress toward collective goals. He also demonstrates how an internal and public facing economic dashboard clearly shows how park visitation impacts the parks’ communities and the state.
