BPO - Geographical / Geospatial Information System (GIS)

A geographic information system (GIS), also known as a geographical information system or geospatial information system, is any system for capturing, storing, analyzing, managing and presenting data and associated attributes which are spatially referenced to Earth. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology is a computer-based data collection, storage, and analysis tool that combines previously unrelated information into easily understood maps. But GIS is much more than maps. A GIS can perform complicated analytical functions and then present the results visually as maps, tables or graphs, allowing decision-makers to virtually see the issues before them and then select the best course of action.

The reach of GIS fluctuates from tackling problems ranging from prioritizing sensitive species habitats to determining optimal real estate locations for new businesses. GIS can be used for urban infrastructure planning, water resource mapping and monitoring, civil engineering mapping, contour mapping and detailed forest mapping. Add the Internet, and GIS offers a consistent and cost-effective means for the sharing and analysis of geographic data among government agencies, private industry, non-profit organizations, and the general public.

Case Study 1
Different State map titles have been created for various states in Europe and US.

The work involved

  • Changing projection and datum of digital information provided for this project to required projection and datum.
  • Digitizing all information available from different sources (Digital files from different authorities, city road maps, county sources from different county authorities, DOT maps for road classifications, Township maps, Census records, USGS Quads, Folded maps, Research updates, Edit Overlays, etc.) as point, line and polygon.
  • Edge matching between State and Interstate boundaries

The projects delivered include digitizing of individual cadastral maps. The features in the cadastral map that needed to be digitized are:

  • Boundary of Commune, Province, etc
  • Roads,
  • Water bodies
  • Buildings
  • Symbols like Church, Cemetery
  • All annotations including parcel nos., Road names, Community names, etc

Case Study 2
Different State map titles have been created for various states in Europe and US.

The work involved

  • Each cadastral map is scanned and the image is geocoded to the required projection.
  • All features are digitized in different levels as per specification.
  • Topology checks are made.
  • Links are established between buildings and respective parcels if any.
  • Validation is carried out for Topology
  • Quality check is carried out and each map is finalized and delivered.
