The Renewal Trust

 

St Ann's Allotments is a group of allotments, in Nottingham, England, It is a listed Grade II* Hertiage site in Historic England's Register of Parks and Gardens. The site's rich history dates back to the 16th century, when it served as a recreational area for Nottingham's citisens. By the 18th century, the land was transformed into allotment gardens, providing essential food sources for the local community.

We worked closely with the allotment team to develop an online GIS platform with Esri to manage their land, plots and daily tasks. They have a number of maps and data layers that they use to track the location of their plots, water features, and other amenities. This helps them to ensure that the allotments are used in the most efficient and sustainable way possible.

  • We provided the team with training on using Esri Mobile Applications, creating layers from scratch at base, and capturing data in the field using their mobile devices. This has enabled the team to efficiently gather data on site features like water taps, trees, and fences, conduct surveys, and manage maintenance tasks. This new approach has improved the allotments' efficiency, accuracy, and transparency in managing their site.

  • Location intelligence has revolutionised the way the allotment team manages the site, enabling them to make data-driven decisions that improve efficiency, sustainability, and overall site health. From detailed site mapping to predictive analytics, spatial data has transformed the allotment team's ability to plan, track issues, and optimise resources. This data-driven approach is crucial for maintaining the allotments as a thriving community asset.

  • To help the allotment team leverage the power of spatial data, Bozmaps provided comprehensive training that included hands-on exercises, tailored workflows, step-by-step guides, and tutorials. This hands-on approach ensured that the team not only understood the theoretical concepts but also gained practical skills in using Esri's ArcGIS Online system to capture and manage data. By empowering the team to become skilled and self-sufficient in data capture, Bozmaps facilitated the adoption of a data-driven approach to allotment management. This training equipped the team with the knowledge and tools to effectively plan, track issues, and optimise resources, ultimately enhancing the overall efficiency and sustainability of the allotments.
