Designed for the People Who Will Use It
The same data may need to communicate differently to a project manager, landowner, field crew or public audience. Map scale, labels, colors and supporting information are chosen with the end user in mind.
Planning
Discuss the study area, how the data will be collected and what information needs to be presented in your maps.
Operations
From data collection to final presentation, we can assist your team in creating actionable information.
Communication
Once your data has been collected and analyzed, we can format and present key information to your clients or the agency you are working with to help you get the job done right.
GIS Project Questions
Do you need to collect data from the field, or does the data for your mapping needs already exist within your agency?
Existing spreadsheets, coordinates, maps, drawings and geographic files may all be useful. The first step is reviewing what is available and whether it supports the intended result. If data needs to be collected, we can design a system to do so and discuss who will carry out the collection.
What form will the maps and data I receive be in?
Most clients prefer their maps in a digital format. Printing services are also available. All data used to create maps and other related outputs will be made available as file geodatabases, shapefiles and spreadsheets, as required.
A CLOSER LOOK
Layered Data. One Clear View.
GIS brings property information, imagery, contours and project data together so relationships become easier to see, explain and act on.
