GIS [geographic information system] is beneficial for informed decision making. GIS consulting is particularly valuable to industries which benefit from specific geographic data including: utility management, precision farming, telecom, transportation, sewer and water. A GIS consulting firm has the ability to generate maps which capture, store analyze and manage data catered to the industry that the system is designed for. GIS technology has many applications and can be used anywhere from identifying land to protect, to site a new business location, to take advantage of a previously underserved market.
GIS consulting uses modern technologies in digital information, and various digitized data creation methods are used. The most common is digitization. It uses hard copy maps or a survey plan, and transfers onto a digital medium using a computer-aided design [CAD] and geo-referencing capabilities. However, heads-up digitizing is becoming more common with aerial and satellite images. This involves tracing geographic data directly on top of aerial imagery instead of tracing on a separate digitizing tablet, called heads-down.
