Tandem Global hosts online event from Civil and Environmental Consultants
BETHESDA, MD / ACCESS Newswire / January 7, 2026 / Monitoring and showcasing conservation and restoration projects have evolved significantly over the past two decades. From early field sampling using paper maps and film cameras to today's drones, GIS, and interactive digital tools, practitioners have a wide range of options to collect, manage, and communicate data.
With all this change, how can companies select approaches that remain practical and scalable across different project types and site sizes?
At an online event on January 21, 2026 at 1:00pm ET, specialists from Civil & Environmental Consultants, Inc. (CEC) will share insights into field sampling and site monitoring, demonstrating how both formal and informal practices can be applied based on project goals. They will discuss where traditional methods still add value, particularly on smaller sites, while highlighting the capabilities of electronic data collection, GIS applications, and modern data management systems.
The session will also examine tools such as drones and AI for assessing large-scale habitats, along with effective ways to present data, from hard copy reports to interactive online platforms. Attendees will learn how tools like StoryMaps can turn project results into clear, engaging narratives for partners and the public.
This webinar emphasizes practical strategies for keeping monitoring efforts relevant and adaptable, whether you're managing a single small site or overseeing a complex, landscape-scale initiative.
