    The CNE (National Corps of Scouts - Portuguese Catholic Scouting) is the largest youth association in the country, which is why the movement of its members in their respective activities (camps, cantonments, and hiking) and their safety are factors of concern. The use of GIS (Geographic Information Systems), with the platform called GEO SCOUTS, with tools from ESRI (Environmental Systems Research Institute), has made it possible to standardize and simplify the reporting of scouting activities at national and internal level (each nucleus, region of the Association, camps and scout centres, and activities outside the country). Likewise, it did the same externally (Municipal Councils, the Sub-regional Commands of Emergency and Civil Protection, Institute of Nature Conservation and Forests, Emergency Unit, Protection and Relief of the National Republican Guard, National Republican Guard, Public Security Police, Maritime Police, and Health Centre Groupings). It is a mapping and analysis tool that enables more thoughtful and faster decision-making, simplifying the whole process that current legislation and internal regulation requires.In this way all competent bodies know in advance where each activity will take place and what they will do, facilitating interaction and security between the various associations and institutions.
