What is GIS?

GIS stands for Geographic Information Systems, a technology for managing and analysing spatial and non-spatial data.

How can GIS benefit my project?

Using GIS to conduct analysis provides detailed insights and visualisations that support informed decision-making and project planning.

Can I access GIS data on mobile devices?

Yes, our cloud-based platforms ensure you can access spatial data from any device, anywhere.

Can you work with our existing enterprise systems?

Yes, we excel at working with spatial data, stored on your on-premises servers or in cloud storage platforms. Our GIS experts have 25 years of experience working with different GIS technologies including proprietary GIS software such as ESRI ArcGIS Pro, ESRI ArcMap, ESRI Enterprise systems, Hexagon, VertiGIS, OneMap, and MapInfo; open-source GIS software such as QGIS, PostGIS/PostgreSQL, and GDAL; GIS web mapping libraries including Leaflet, Mapbox, Google Maps API, and Cesium; and data transformation (extract-transform-load) tools such as Python, ESRI ModelBuilder, QGIS model designer, and Feature Manipulation Engine (FME).

Do you provide ongoing support?

Yes, our expert GIS team provides on-call support during business hours ensuring that you receive the assistance you need when you need it.

What database and file formats are available?

We offer a variety of proprietary and open-source options for databases and file formats. Our GIS experts have a comprehensive background working with various formats and their metadata, enabling us to help you identify the most suitable options for your needs. We work with ESRI geodabatases, PostGIS/PostgreSQL spatial databases, as well as formats like shapefiles, ESRI feature classes, geojson, geopackage, XML, GML, DWG, DXF, ECW, KML, geoTIFF, geoBIM (revit and IFC), multipatch, and scene layer packages for delivering raster and vector files in 2D or 3D.

GIS

What are spatial data management services?

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are powerful tools that capture, store, manipulate, analyse, manage, and visualise spatial or geographic data. With GIS technology, data becomes more than numbers and text – it becomes a dynamic visual representation, offering insights that transform how data is visualised and understood to drive smarter decision-making in organisations. Our expert team of GIS specialists work with your organisation to implement spatial data management services that enable your organisation to use location-based data effectively.

GIS technology integrates various sources of spatial and non-spatial data into a coordinated database system enabling users to perform sophisticated spatial analysis and represent spatial data visually in 2D and 3D. This technology is essential for understanding spatial relationships and patterns by enriching non-spatial data with a geographic element. GIS technology is a cornerstone of effective modern data management for the enterprise.
