Dissertation
Development of a geographic information system to analyze conservation law enforcement data in Mississippi
2002
Overview
Geographic information systems (GIS) have been used in wildlife and fisheries management and research for many years. However, these systems are not being used to their fullest potential in conservation law enforcement. At present, there are only 5 conservation law enforcement agencies in the United States using a GIS. This research outlines the development of a GIS for use in conservation law enforcement in Mississippi and preliminary analysis of citation data from fiscal years 1997–2000 on a county and state level. Geographic information systems can provide officers the means to become more pro-active and efficient at managing and protecting our wildlife resources. This may be achieved by retaining the institutional knowledge of all officers that have worked for an agency. With this knowledge base in place, wildlife resources can be protected effectively for years to come.
