This webinar aired on October 19, 2023 as the third installment of Esri's Environmental Regulation webinar series.

Sunny Fleming is Esri’s Industry Specialist for Environment and Conservation for State and Local Government. She read the Infrastructure Bill so you don’t have to. 

Here’s her two cents on what the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) is and what it means for environmental professionals and your everyday citizen.

Ecobot assists with digitizing federal and state agencies' field work around natural resource identification, reducing labor costs around natural resources regulation, and stretching federal funding and budgets to their fullest extent. 

What is a wetland delineation?

A wetland delineation is fieldwork that establishes the boundaries between wetlands and uplands on a property. A wetland is an area of land that is covered or saturated with water, either seasonally or permanently. Wetlands serve important ecological functions, affecting water quality and biodiversity, and are therefore regulated by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. 

Do you use Esri’s ArcGIS Field Maps? Use Ecobot alongside ArcGIS Field Maps enables environmental consultants to streamline field data collection for wetland projects, make the data collected more accurate and robust, and easily collaborate with teammates. 

This topic was covered in the 23rd episode of Ecobot's webinar series, Convergence of Wetland Science and Technology. View recorded episodes here.
