From field data to decisions

We collect, analyse and present geospatial data for government agencies, non-profits and private companies.

Geospatial baselines & change analysis

Satellite and field data turned into baselines, land-cover change and environmental condition maps.

We combine satellite imagery, existing maps and field observations to record how a place looks today, then measure how it changes. A baseline gives an assessment, a monitoring programme or a planning decision something fixed to compare against.

Typical outputs

  • Land-use and land-cover maps
  • Change detection between dates
  • Environmental condition baselines
  • Map series and summary reports

Environmental & social impact mapping

Spatial evidence for impact assessments, spill response and community-level risk.

Impact assessments and incident response need evidence that is tied to location: which communities, which waterways, which land. We map the study area, the people and assets in it, and the extent of the impact, so the assessment rests on data that can be checked.

Typical outputs

  • Study-area and sensitivity mapping
  • Spill and incident extent mapping
  • Settlement and asset exposure analysis
  • Maps and figures for EIA reports

Participatory & field mapping

Ground-truthing, mobile data collection and community mapping, done with the people who live there.

Many places in the Niger Delta are poorly represented on existing maps. We collect data on the ground with mobile tools and work alongside residents, so the map records what is actually there: landmarks, facilities and settlements that official sources miss.

Typical outputs

  • Field surveys and mobile data collection
  • Points of interest and facility mapping
  • Community and settlement mapping
  • Ground-truthing of remote-sensing outputs

Geodatabases, web maps & dashboards

ArcGIS-based databases, interactive maps and dashboards that fit how your team already works.

We design geospatial databases that hold your data in a consistent structure, then present it as interactive maps, dashboards, charts and reports. We build them to fit the systems and workflows you already have, and to stay flexible as your needs change.

Typical outputs

  • Geodatabase design and data migration
  • Asset and network mapping
  • Interactive web maps
  • Dashboards, charts and reports

How we work

Every project follows the same path, scaled to the question and the budget. We fit our outputs into your existing systems rather than asking you to change them.

  1. Collect

    Satellite imagery, existing records and field data, gathered and checked for quality.

  2. Analyse

    Spatial analysis of patterns, change and relationships, built around the decision you need to make.

  3. Present

    Maps, dashboards, databases and reports in a form your team and stakeholders can use.

Our platform

We are a member of the Esri Partner Network (Bronze) and work mainly on the ArcGIS platform.
