Monthly Retainer Services

System Design and Implementation
Creating a plan and best practices
​

Nothing more, nothing less.

GIS Data
How to best use your existing data or capturing new data
Spatially located objects with all their attributes stored in a database is what gives GIS its power. When you have data attached to a mapped object, the analysis and decision making potential is exponentially increased for your organization. Lance American will asses all legacy data sources and formats within your organization, and make decisions about their usability in your new GIS system.
​
Additionally, just because your data doesn't yet have a spatial component to it, doesn't mean that it can't play a vital role in your GIS system. If we determine that you need new data, either from existing data warehousing sources, or if it needs to be "captured"...Lance American will provide that best path forward to making sure your data is accurate and usable. Because without accurate and reliable data, the most sophisticated GIS systems and analytical software packages don't do you much good.
