Last April, the CONDOR program was awarded a prize by Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), the world’s leading company in the field of GIS, for the "best development of applications based on Geographic Information Systems and as a system that contributes to society and sets precedents for the work done in the regional geographic community."
