    Abstract

    © Springer International Publishing AG 2018. This chapter presents ways in which the emerging GNSS methods could be useful in supporting management and conservation efforts of animals and vegetation. Ways in which animals and vegetation impact on the environment, and vice versa, i.e., the ways in which the environment impact, through human-induced anthropogenic activities, on the animals and vegetation are considered. Specific emphasis on how GNSS could support these efforts through monitoring, thereby enabling remedial measures to be undertaken are presented.
