Description
Komodo National Park, located in Indonesia, is a UNESCO World Heritage site established in 1980 to protect the endangered Komodo dragon and the park is home to approximately 5,700 Komodo dragons and over 1,000 species of tropical fish (UNESCO World Heritage Centre, 2010).Moreover, by 2000, around 1,200 people were living on Komodo island (WWF.Panda.org In 1991, Komodo was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site (WWF.Panda.org,)
To support conservation, the park uses advanced technologies such as the SMART system, which enhances data collection and expands patrol coverage (World, 2022). This has vastly improved wildlife monitoring, ensuring the protection of key species like the Komodo dragon. Surveillance cameras are also used to prevent poaching and other illegal activities (Park, 2023).
The use of digital interpretation on Komodo Island can facilitate the sustainable development targets of goal 15, life on land and goal 14 of life below water.
