Whether you're creating baseline documentation for land trusts, managing public land use, monitoring property changes for compliance, or communicating right-of-way projects, Land id’s platform delivers a better workflow.

A Wildfire’s Worst Nightmare: GIS

Wildfires are one of the most devastating natural disasters known to man. In 2021 alone, we saw 58,985 fires and 7,100,000 acres of land destroyed in the US. As society continues to grow and expand, the risks from wildfires increase dramatically, especially in areas that have historically been prone to them, such as the western United States.

GIS for Conservation: How Data Is Helping to Protect Wildlife

In the past, conservation efforts aimed at protecting ecosystems and ensuring biodiversity have been criticized for failing to consider the needs of humans, but it turns out the researchers, activists, and policymakers doing this arduous work have been working for the benefit of humanity all along.

Conservation Easements: Landowners' Secret Weapon Against Development

If you’ve ever known a Texan — or happen to be one yourself — then you know just how proud Texas is of its sprawling land and scenic vistas. Unfortunately, all this beautiful rural land is under threat. In American Farmland Trust’s 2020 report, Farms Under Threat: The State of the States, they revealed a shocking finding. The United States has lost more than 11 million acres of agricultural land to development over the last 20 years, and the state most under threat is none other than Texas.
