Geomatics and Geospatial Technology
Determining Accurate Spatially Referenced Data on any Scale

Geomatics or Geospatial Technology is the discipline of gathering, processing and delivering accurate spatially referenced data. Land surveying is only one aspect of this field. Utilizing specialized tools and techniques, Geomatics Professionals use terrestrial, marine, airborne and satellite-based sensors to acquire and analyze critical spatial data.

This accurately measured spatial information has applications in large and small scale land surveying, assessment and management, planning, construction, development of urban and industrial infrastructure, natural resources, manufacturing and in the maintenance of a wide range of equipment and facilities.

We can provide Geomatics services for a wide variety of land survey, industrial, commercial, manufacturing, maintenance and
general assessment purposes. Our mobile technology allows us to provide services on-site, wherever needed for any custom application or project requirement.
