SMART System
This is the software package that consists of two programs - a Windows application for a desktop computer and Android mobile applications for inspectors' smartphones. The program itself is free, it has a description, instructions and technical documentation on the website (in English):https://smartconservationtools.org/
Why is SMART needed in protected areas?
- for simple and convenient data collection on the territory;
- to control employees;
- for automatic generation of reports according to predefined forms;
- to analyze the work of the law enforcement and improve its efficiency
Presentation about the SMART system (pdf-file of presentation).
I am engaged in a full range of work on the implementation of the system in the work of protected areas, from database development to staff training.
I was trained in the deployment of the SMART system in Norway, at the Polar Institute in Tromsø.
To create a system, it is necessary to prepare the forms of reports that it will have to generate, this will actually be a ToR. Based on these forms, I will create databases and set up applications. I then install and configure the software on site, and conduct a training workshop for inspectors and data collection staff.
I planned and carried out a full range of work in several areas: for the hunting department of the Republic of Yakutia (WWF project for the conservation of wild reindeer), in the Beringia National Park, on bear patrols in Chukotka, in the Ergaki Nature Park, Krasnoyarsk Kray, in the Remdovsky Refuge and in the Sebezhsky National Park (Pskov Region).
