CUSTOM MAPS

Maps can tell a story through visualization of geospatial data, and there are countless stories to be told! While GIS involves more than just maps, they are often the first thing that comes to mind when discussing the topic. From functional maps used in the workplace to fun maps, there are so many possibilities. If you have a map idea, I would be happy to work with you to create a customized product that brings your vision to life.

GEOSPATIAL DATA

 Geospatial data is the backbone of GIS, and without it, GIS is nothing. I offer a range of services related to geospatial data, which are mentioned below.  


  • Creation – Geospatial data can be created in many ways, such as digitizing, georeferencing, or by coordinates.  
  • Collection – It is crucial to get out in the field and collect data accurately to build an asset database that is reliable.  
  • Conversion – Converting data from one format to another is a common practice in GIS. For example, geospatial data can be created in GIS and exported into a KML or KMZ format to be used in Google Earth. 
  •  Analysis – GIS software has many tools that use geospatial data to conduct various types of analysis.  
  • Cleanup – Dirty data is a widespread problem, and it can get out of control when updates are not done in a timely manner. With a little direction on what you would like done with the data, I can get it tidied up, saving your organization time and manpower. 

ASSET MANAGEMENT

 Asset management is a topic that has gained a lot of attention recently. There are various approaches to asset management, and GIS is an essential one. 


Almost everything in GIS can be classified as an asset. For example, a city is comprised of greenspaces, roads, pathways, trees, buildings, utility infrastructure, and so on. All of these features can be regarded as assets. They are evaluated based on their condition, have a specific value, and are crucial to keep track of. 


Maintaining your assets in GIS is an excellent way to keep an inventory, which aids in analysis, valuation, condition assessments, location services, and more. There is one catch, the quality of your data. If your data is inaccurate, then your decisions based on that data will be skewed (dirty data in, dirty data out). Therefore, it is crucial to maintain accurate data, and that is where I come in to assist you!
 

CIVIC ADDRESSING

Why It Matters and How We Can Help

Addressing is a vital part of everyday life that often goes unnoticed. Assigning unique numbers to physical locations enables us to navigate and find places efficiently. But addressing is far from arbitrary, it follows established rules and guidelines to ensure consistency and accuracy. When these standards are not followed, confusion and errors can arise, affecting everything from deliveries to emergency response.

With extensive experience dating back to 2013, we specialize in guiding municipalities and organizations through the complexities of addressing. Recently, we partnered with the City of Maple Ridge in British Columbia to prepare their addressing data for the Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) system. Since their existing addresses were not in point format, we created accurate address points from parcel data, building a reliable foundation from scratch.

Do you have incomplete or “dirty” address data, or no address data at all within your GIS? Are you looking for expert help to prepare your data for 

NG9-1-1? We’re here to support you.

Accurate, up-to-date addressing can save lives - emergency responders depend on precise location data to reach people in critical situations. Thanks to the federal NG9-1-1 initiative, the future of addressing is improving, and it’s essential that all municipalities prioritize accurate and consistent addressing practices.

OTHER SERVICES

There are so many uses for GIS. If you do not see the service you are looking for, please contact me and we can discuss how I can be of assistance.


  • GIS Database Creation – organizing your geospatial data in one location where the same data can be used by everyone essential.
  • AutoCAD – GIS and AutoCAD often go hand in hand. Using the data across these platforms is easily accomplished with the right tools.
  • Metadata – an often overlooked but important aspect of geospatial data. Data about data helps other users use the data in the right manner and can help prevent inaccuracies and repeated data, among other issues.
  • Documentation – another aspect of GIS that gets pushed to the side. “How to” documents, data libraries, technical documents and more are services I can help you with that.
