Here’s what we discuss:

“Probably the largest, most unknown tech company in the industry”

Systems are built and branded to the specific state’s requirements

Mobile platforms allow officers access to real-time information

S3 developed the first mobile solution for conservation officers

Technology has typically been marketed to large law enforcement agencies

Access to data in the field increases efficiency – no need to go to the office for info

QR codes allow access even when offline

RFID advancements could allow coastal officers to gather all license info from a nearby vessel without having to board

Tech and the outdoors don’t need to be mutually exclusive

Electronic data can allow officers to quickly get a complete picture 

Potential for faster access to license revocations under the Interstate Wildlife Violator Compact 

Each state currently uses its own format

A standardized system could identify violators on the spot

Violations in one state can result in different restrictions in different states

Timber-Tech column helps bridge the technical gap

Taking the tech into the field to determine exact needs

Why not use every tool that we have?
