The National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) is the most authoritative national dataset for wetlands, yet in many areas its coverage is decades old. Recent policy changes, including the Sackett v. EPA decision, place greater responsibility on states to develop strategies for protecting wetland resources. In this webinar, you’ll learn how the state of Tennessee partnered with Skytec to enhance Esri’s Wetland Identification Model (WIM) with advanced GeoAI and cloud computing to produce more accurate, scalable wetland predictions. We’ll also cover tools to help states get started, how these efforts align with emerging policy trends, and a vision for scaling this approach nationally. Join us to see how these innovations help states make informed, data-driven decisions for conservation, permitting, and land-use planning.
