Over the past 30 years, we have observed remarkable changes in the way local governments manage and use data. Paper-based systems, at their best, relied on knowledgeable, specialist staff who spent their days manually sorting, filing, and cross-referencing documents. This resource-intensive system, run by arguably some of an organization’s most valuable staff at the time, was in some ways easier to manage because file and naming conventions were not subject to the whims of individual logic.

He fought fiercely for evidence- and outcomes-based conservation. Bob discovered (some might say invented) conservation planning in the late 1980s and quickly became one of the premier scientists in this field (Pressey, 2002).
