Department of Game & Inland Fisheries

The Department of Game & Inland Fisheries (DGIF) manages inland fisheries, wildlife, and recreational boating for the Commonwealth of Virginia.

The Agency’s mission is to:

♦ conserve and manage wildlife populations and habitat for the benefit of present and future generations.

♦ connect people to Virginia’s outdoors through boating, education, fishing, hunting, trapping, wildlife viewing, and other wildlife-related activities.

♦ protect people and property by promoting safe outdoor experiences and managing human-wildlife conflicts. 

DGIF is also the department that issues licenses for fishing, hunting and access permits for the state. Its hugely popular Virginia Birding and Wildlife Trail Guide with more than 650 sites now has an online interactive map.

SiteVision Partnership Hosting

We are proud to have been a hosting partner with DGIF for many years. Hosting services include both production and development dedicated servers as well as required Virtual Private Networks (VPN). SiteVision also manages all server patches, updates, and security features. We work closely with DGIF personnel to help ensure a positive hosting experience

We value our relationship and especially appreciate their testimonial to our efforts in their behalf!

“On behalf of the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF), I would like express our appreciation for the efforts put forth by SiteVision in support of our continued mission to leverage cloud based solutions. DGIF approached SiteVision in the spring of 2015 researching a cloud hosting solution to provide high availability, low cost, and high speed access for two Web Servers. Over the last couple years this project has evolved with the addition of a SQL Server and File server.

From the initial start of the project SiteVision’s staff has been instrumental in building a strong professional working relationship backed by their dedicated and knowledgeable staff. The level of support and efficient turnaround regarding server based solutions has allowed for a seamless migration to SiteVision’s servers.

I would like to personally compliment SiteVision staff who were integral in the staging of our servers, software installs, various server communication configurations, contractual and billing required for this projects success. It was a pleasure working with SiteVision and I look forward to continuing this partnership.”

Sincerely,

Jay Kapalczynski
