Our partners rely on us to make sense of geospatial data and maps. We provide analytics, insights, and development support to our partners. Our services are concentrated in three key areas:Geospatial AnalyticsThe Earth is always changing. Knowing how affords your company a strategic advantage. We use many data sources (including satellites,drones, and the crowd) to assemble data. We then build live geospatial analytic products. These deliver insights into the world that surrounds your business. Our clients appreciate how we make this complex information consumable and applicable.ConsultingEven organizations with geospatial expertise benefit from outside counsel. As such, some engage us as off-site partners, to supplement their existing team. Our people have extensive geospatial knowledge, and can use it to help you navigate your unique challenges. We pride ourselves on listening to our clients, and collaborating with them. In doing so, we’re able to create and identify true obstacles—and craft plans for solving those problems.Software DevelopmentTech companies—especially those in the Valley—struggle to grow their development teams. This can prevent them from acting on opportunities. (There aren’t many geospatial developers available for hire.) In these situations, we can help you scale your development team, with proven geospatial developers. Companies, governments and non-profits alike rely on us to both augment teams, and for complete software builds.
