Our Services

Enterprise Ready GIS Transformation:

 Are you ready to move your GIS to the next level?

 

Many GIS organizations today have desktop GIS infrastructures. These are typically based upon client-server architectures with large spatial databases and a number of complex desktop CAD or desktop GIS applications.  While such a setup works well in many cases for ad-hoc projects and complex data creation and analysis work, there is a real need for organizations to evolve these traditional infrastructures to better integrate with non-GIS and non-CAD enterprise systems.  Moreover, web services and web applications can augment, enrich and complement the client-server GIS world.

 

43 North GIS can help organizations transform their existing client-server GIS infrastructure to better integrate into the enterprise IT landscape. In addition, we can help you design an infrastructure that will leverage internal and external web services to improve the overall effectiveness of your GIS.

GIS Optimization 

Are you getting the most out of your GIS now?

 

It often seems like the capabilities of GIS software grows at a rate faster than most organizations can adapt. Most GIS users typically use only a small fraction of the capabilities already in the GIS software they have today.  Huge gains in productivity, efficiency and quality can often be had just by using the same tool you have today in a new way. Imagine being able to get more done in less time, without adding new software licenses, resources or staff.

 

By examining your workflows and current toolsets, 43 North GIS can help you get more out if the GIS software you have today. It can be as simple as pointing out a new tool or capability that takes the place of many, or it can be the automation of several repetitive tasks into a single, more efficient workflow. We can also help you develop a business case with a clear ROI to help grow and improve your GIS.

Leveraging GIS

Is your organization new to GIS?

 

It goes by many names; Geographic Information Systems, Location Intelligence, Spatial Information Systems, Neo-Geography, Spatially-Enabled Infrastructure, Location-Based Services, Web mapping and mashups, Geo-Enabled Enterprise...

 

Whatever your organization chooses to call it, 43 North GIS can help leverage the “where” that exists in your data today. By combining it with the rich geographic information and spatial reference data that is widely and readily available, your organization can gain hidden insights into your customers and assets. Our approach is to develop a clear, simple plan that will show value quickly.

GIS Technology Review and Planning

Do you need help and guidance in understanding new trends and technologies?

 

GIS technology does not exist in a vacuum. It can be a challenge for organizations to understand the complex way your GIS system can work with, and take advantage of new and emerging technologies such as web services, new web development APIs and approaches, cloud infrastructure, and even new versions of commercial and open source GIS tools.

 

As a trusted advisor, 43 North GIS can provide knowledge and training on these new technologies grounded in the context of your GIS activities. We can also help you develop a plan for a logical and feasible roadmap to bring new technology in house, and get the full benefit out of your investment.

Application Development and Prototyping

Do you just need some help getting your GIS project off the ground?

 

Sometimes GIS organizations simply lack the internal resources or skill sets required to get a GIS project or application up and running.  Other projects may have started strong, but have come off the rails due to shifting priorities, changing staff or scope adjustment.

 

The network of passionate, energetic and talented people 43 North GIS can draw upon means we can help you find the resources and skills you need to make your GIS project a success. We can help plan, prototype, develop and manage your GIS project on a short-term or long-term bases.
