An Inclusive History of Conservation GIS
All too often, history is the stories of empires and conquest, and the gentlemen explorers who benefited from that privilege. Conservation is no different. 2020 will be an historic year by many measures, for reasons ranging from biology to politics to social justice. It seemed opportune therefore to attempt to tell the history of Conservation & GIS from a different perspective, that of the many different cultures and nations who contributed, not just the few John Muirs or Ian McHargs normally described. For source material, it will rely heavily upon the ongoing work of the Conservation Reference Project
