The Chesapeake Conservancy recently completed a report, funded by the Digital Energy and Sustainability Solutions Campaign, which explores the role that information and communications technology can play in guiding conservation efforts throughout the Chesapeake Bay watershed and prioritizing the protection and restoration of the region’s most valuable ecosystems. The report, entitled “The Emerging Role of Technology in Precision Conservation,” highlights new cost-effective technologies that can rapidly and accurately determine high-functioning natural landscapes that have the greatest potential for maintaining or improving the water quality of the Chesapeake Bay.
