The award is presented to individuals who have applied the principles of landscape ecology to real-world problems in outstanding ways over the years. As director of ECP for almost three decades, Convis has used GIS to empower countless organizations to conserve species, landscapes, and ecosystems.\r\n<h2>Partnership Increases Regional Collaboration<\/h2>\r\nEsri has partnered with the National Association of Regional Councils (NARC) to deliver GIS training to the organization's members. They will benefit from hands-on workshops and webinars; free app templates for fields such as transportation, the environment, planning, and economic development; a best practices resource center; and a new web portal with information on the public policies advocated by NARC leadership.\r\n<h2>Planners Earn Credit for Esri Events<\/h2>\r\nThe American Planning Association (APA) now allows
