When our monitors spend less time monitoring, they have more time available to work on other important conservation strategies and tasks. Our staff are our most valuable resource.

We discovered a potential violation in a remote area of a large conservation easement property, which may not have been discovered on a ground visit.

Overall, Upstream has provided our staff outstanding customer service, responding quickly to any questions or needs. The Lens platform is very user friendly, and our monitoring staff picked it up easily with little training.

I anticipate that Lens will make our monitoring program more resilient to unforeseen circumstances, whether it's as minor as a volunteer who drops out due to a move or a global pandemic that upends the world as we know it.
