Your team is locked into desktop GIS software that non-GIS staff cannot access or afford to license.

Custom GIS Applications Built by Engineers Who Actually Know Spatial
End-to-end GIS application development — interactive web maps, spatial APIs, geodatabase design, and field data tools — built by a team with deep, hands-on GIS engineering experience.
// The buying trigger
You probably need this when…
You have spatial data but no way to visualize, share, or act on it without specialist help.
A previous web map was built but is slow, hard to maintain, or impossible to extend without the original developer.
Field teams collect data in spreadsheets or paper forms that have to be manually geocoded and imported.
// Concrete scope
What the engagement delivers
Every item is tied to an acceptance owner and evidence. Final scope is confirmed after data, security, and integration review.
Spatial requirements workshop and technical architecture document
Geodatabase schema design with spatial indexing and validation rules
Interactive web map or GIS dashboard (Mapbox GL JS, MapLibre, Leaflet, or Deck.gl)
Spatial REST API with geometry, topology, and projection handling
Field data collection workflow (mobile-ready, offline-capable where required)
PostGIS or cloud-native spatial data store with documented data model
Deployment, user guide, and 30-day post-launch support
// Delivery process
From evidence to operational handover
- 01
Spatial requirements
Define users, workflows, data sources, map interactions, permissions, and integration points.
- 02
Geodatabase design
Model geometry types, attribute schemas, spatial relationships, topology rules, and indexing strategy.
- 03
Application build
Develop map interface, API layer, authentication, and any field collection or editing workflows.
- 04
Data load and test
Ingest, validate, and QA all spatial data against agreed geometry and attribute standards.
- 05
Deploy and hand over
Deploy to your cloud or hosting environment, train users, and document the system for your team.
// Proof before promises
How value is verified
No vanity accuracy number. Evidence is chosen around the operational decision and agreed before delivery starts.
- ✓Geometry validity, coordinate accuracy, and attribute completeness reports for all loaded data
- ✓Performance benchmarks for map tile loading and API query response under representative load
- ✓User acceptance testing with named operational staff before go-live
// Buyer questions
Frequently asked questions
Can you build on top of our existing QGIS or ArcGIS data?+
Yes. We work with shapefiles, file geodatabases, GeoPackages, WFS, and REST services, migrating what is needed to the target platform.
Do you build mobile GIS apps for field collection?+
Yes. We build mobile-compatible web GIS tools and can integrate with Survey123, ESRI Field Maps, or custom offline-capable PWAs depending on your requirements.
Which mapping libraries do you use?+
Mapbox GL JS, MapLibre GL JS, Leaflet, Deck.gl, and OpenLayers — chosen based on your data volume, styling needs, and licensing preferences.
Can you migrate us off ArcGIS licensing?+
In many cases, yes. We assess what ArcGIS capabilities you actually use and design an open-source or cost-optimized stack that covers them.
How do you handle large raster or vector datasets?+
Through spatial tiling (MVT, COG, WMTS), PostGIS spatial indexing, and cloud-native storage on S3 or GCS — so users see fast maps, not slow renders.
