Sport Ireland has launched Get Ireland Active, a national digital hub which maps sports and recreation facilities, walking and cycling trails, public parks, and other amenities around the country to promote higher levels of physical activity.
Sport Ireland is the national authority responsible for developing sport and outdoor recreation in Ireland.
It conducted audits of all sports facilities in Ireland to create the central data hub, which will continue to be updated as data is made available.
Esri Ireland’s digital mapping system is being used by Sport Ireland for the project.
“Esri Ireland’s expertise has been crucial in bringing the Get Ireland Active database to life,” said Dr Úna May, CEO of Sport Ireland.
“Their technology allows us to offer a user-friendly platform that has comprehensive information about recreational activities across Ireland.
“Technology is transforming how we approach our everyday lives, and it’s vital that we use this to our benefit,” Dr May added.
