This project's aim to implement an interactive narrative web mapping application to visualize the outcomes of the TEMPO project for wildlife and livestock managers in three Zimbabwean Wildlife and Livestock interfaces (WLI). The narrative web mapping application is implemented using database and GIS tools (PostgresSQL with PostGIS as a spatial extension and QGIS with QGIS server as a map server) combined with Internet technologies (Apache web server, Lizmap web mapping client and NAMO GeoWeb narrative web mapping platform). The implemented application describes, in association with a narrative, the key factors of animal mobility in the environment (land use, surface water, agricultural areas, savannah fires), animal mobility and contacts that determine the risk of transmission of pathogens. The implemented web tool will allow users to easily access TEMPO project results by a web browser, although currently the platform is not compatible with smartphones. The dissemination of this information will promote improved herding practices and the implementation of best wildlife and livestock management practices in the studied interfaces.
