GIS and Mapping
We provide state-of-the-art mapping and spatial analysis services that add value to your environmental data.
With expertise in remote sensing, GIS, and data management, our specialists develop datasets and analyses that allow you to observe and understand key environmental features of your project.
We gather and analyze geospatial and satellite Earth observation data to extract levels of information to highlight patterns and relationships useful for your project, such as terrain, land cover, water resources, and sensitive habitats.

Data Mining and Analysis
Environmental Monitoring Data — the volume of data generated during field studies can be cumbersome without a well-planned data management system. Through the development of field data sheets, electronic spreadsheet templates, and specialized database structures, Enviro Management has streamlined the collection, storage, and analysis of monitoring data. Such data management techniques have improved efficiency in data analysis, report generation, and electronic reporting to regulatory agencies. Data management systems can be tailored to field programs in soil and groundwater studies, fisheries, benthos, surface water and sediment quality investigations, and toxicological assessments.
Geographic Information Systems — environmental data interpretation can be enhanced with the use of geographic information systems (GIS). The ability to visualize and compare different types of data (e.g., land use, water quality, fisheries) allows environmental managers to “see” the extent of environmental effects or potential resource use conflicts. A standard tool in the forestry and planning sectors, GIS technology is gaining popularity for the management and analysis of environmental data.
