Public Relations and Marketing
We can promote your project with key constituencies in order to help ensure success. Often a conservation project needs assistance to generate the necessary enthusiasm to bring it to fruition.
We have experience with:
- Placing favorable stories with earned media like newspapers, periodicals, and television
- Developing and strategically using paid advertising
- Enlisting online websites, blogs, forums, chatrooms, and podcasts
- Lobbying legislative and other government bodies
- Researching public opinion scientifically to gauge potential support
- Conduct public meetings
Since corporations have consistently used public relations and marketing to advance their missions, conservation organizations need to use similar tools and techniques.
Wildlife Management, Biology and Conservation
We have experience and can produce comprehensive conservation plans:
- Short-term and long-term plans for habitat development
- Management and restoration of wetlands
- Management or restoration of upland forests, riparian zones, savannah and prairies
Habitat development can be designed to complement property goals. We can also conduct a wide range of wildlife inventories, including threatened or endangered species.
If desired, language or interpretive brochures and signage describing habitat, wildlife and on-site natural resources can easily be provided.
Forestry and Geographic Information Systems
Forestry
We have experience in all aspects of sustainable forest management, from inventory and planning to harvesting and reforestation, on both private and federal lands.
We can use data recorders to collect forest resource information in the field and analyzed collected information for reports on forest health, including the use of GIS to provide accurate maps of the forest landscape.
Our forester harvesting experience includes both the preparation and administration of timber sale contracts that were developed to meet a variety of goals, including:
- Restoration of natural forest ecosystems
- Wood production
- Controlling insect and disease damage
- Wildlife habitat improvement
- Fuels reduction
- Verified carbon standards
GIS
We can gather, visualize, manage, and manipulate geo-spatial data with an emphasis on:
- Photo interpretation
- Image processing
- Wildlife habitat improvement
- Hardcopy map production
- Data conversion
- Geospatial analysis
Our methods make it possible to consolidate substantial amounts of data for easier understanding through visualization.
