A web-based Geographical Information System (GIS) software will now help tiger conservation workers keep track of the big cats in India's Manas Tiger Reserve bordering the Bhutan


Himalayas. The Manas Tiger Reserve Information System (MANTRIS) software contains details on most aspects of the picturesque tiger reserve — administrative centers, forest boundary, land use


pattern, drainage, forest villages, NGO locations, roads network, ride line, elephant points, golden langur points and digital elevation model (topography). The software covers a 2800 sqkm


area with the Sankosh river in the west to Dhansiri river in the east in Assam along the Indo-Bhutan border. A Kolkata-based group designed the software after two years of extensive field


work and research. The software is the first such web-based information system launched in a wildlife protection area in the remote north eastern states of India. The software is available


in digital format and is expected to go live on the internet soon. The developers say MANTRIS could become a platform for habitat linkages within Manas Tiger Reserve and other key habitats


of Bhutan Biological Conservation Complex.
