Geographic Information Services
With an experienced staff of geospatial technology professionals, SWCA offers a full spectrum of geographic information services, including geospatial data creation, integration, analysis, visual simulation, and application development. Our use of industry-standard GIS, computer-aided design (CAD), GPS, and remote sensing applications supports seamless integration of geospatial-based technology with planning, management, and decision needs. In addition to in-the-field mapping, we use the growing technology of web-based virtual mapping tools such as Google Earth™ to provide real-time data that can be viewed in a dynamic, 3-D environment. You no longer have to guess or imagine how their finished project sites will look. With spatial modeling tools that simulate real-world conditions, SWCA can accurately ‘predict’ the visual aspect of project outcomes.
