Fresh off last week’s R3 Forum, fall is just around the corner, and more folks than ever are exploring their public lands… We're feeling energized about what this means for the broader conservation community and how we can begin asking questions about who is heading outdoors and how can we fully maximize this opportunity that’s in front of us?
One of the major themes around this year’s virtual R3 symposium was around marketing, and UNDERSTANDING your audience: who, what, why and WHERE.
Esri worked with a handful of states to develop solutions for R3 – the first step being this baseline understanding that was a prominent focus of the R3 Symposium. We want to provide agencies with the “Easy Button” to be able to deploy a solution out of the box, with all the technical components wired up and ready to go. South Dakota has already taken advantage of them with subtle configurations to meet their needs.
Initially these were deployed via the Solutions Deployment Tool in ArcGIS Pro, but we wanted a way to make it even EASIER. Enter: The Solutions App in ArcGIS Online.
Through the Solutions App, you can browse many of Esri’s Solutions and deploy them directly from your organization, to your organization, bypassing the initial deployment through ArcGIS Pro.
With the Outdoor Recreation Solution, you get not only the R3 license dashboard, but also a new Hub Template to conduct outreach! This includes our locators for parks, license retailers, boating/fishing/hunting and can be configured to meet your unique needs.
The better we understand our audiences and provide them with an intuitive place for all their outdoor information, the better we position conservation for a sustainable future. We look forward to seeing how you all deploy and configure these solutions!
