The foundation of any information system is the data behind it. GIS applications, like any other application, would need the data to perform analysis and provide scenarios and options for decisions support. Other enterprise systems within the organization may also need the GIS data to support the business goals and processes. Our consultants have extensive experience in conceptualizing, designing, and developing GIS data and geodatabases that will provide the foundation for your business and operational needs. The GIS databases are built using industry standard software platforms such as ESRI, MapInfo, Autodesk, Intergraph etc. on SQL Server, DB2 and ORACLE.

Our data development approach allows us to:

• Create, update, enhance, and maintain geodatabases
• Retain and update information in existing databases
• Migrate and geo-enable legacy databases
• Allowing interoperability of geodatabases for different data formats and software platforms
