Data and GIS Solutions

Geospatial and data consultancy for operational, policy and development decision-making

The ever-increasing availability of spatial data can help us better understand and manage resources, operations and the environment. However, the ‘big data revolution’ brings a whole raft of data management, analysis and interpretation challenges.

To make the most of the data available, a sound understanding of data architecture, audit, management, standardisation, manipulation and presentation is required.

Using industry-leading geospatial software (ArcGIS, AutoCAD Map3D, ESRI, Global Mapper), our experienced data architects deliver Geographic Information System (GIS), data management and charting services including:

Data sourcing
Quality assurance
Standard-compliant metadata
Bespoke GIS-tools
Spatial analysis
Map production

We have extensive experience of online data dissemination; developing interactive webGIS applications, 3D visualisations and engaging Storymaps to share projects with stakeholder groups.

We work with all forms of spatial data, including Automatic Identification System (AIS), hydrographic, topographic, LiDAR, metocean, commercial fisheries, habitat, recreational and cultural data and are known for developing innovative GIS models to decode and display data in meaningful ways for assessment and decision-making purposes.

Our specialist skills have been used to support a wide range of environmental, socio-economic and navigational risk assessment.

We deliver tailored data integration, database development and GIS management services for clients, with the capability to architect, implement and provide ongoing support to desktop and online geospatial platforms. Applications range from real-time data solutions and analytical reporting interfaces to complex stakeholder applications such as the ABP property and compliance solution built on new GIS IT infrastructure.
