Tyler Technologies on Tuesday announced that the California Department of Parks and Recreation signed an eight-year agreement with the firm to improve the state’s park reservation system using its Outdoor Recreation tool, becoming a one-stop shop for California State Parks’ digital services.

The new platform builds off Tyler’s recreation management system, used by California State Parks since 2016, to help users explore parks, reserve campsites and buy day passes. The company’s Outdoor Recreation software offers offers a single website for California state park use — everything from reservation booking to transactions.

Tyler Technologies claims 11,500 government agencies as customers. The Texas firm provides a wide range of digital services, from permit application portals to enterprise resource planning software.
