Data and Image Modelling & Analysis
Data or images can be modelled and analysed, the resultant information can be used for strategic or specific management planning. Fire Hazard Planning can be supported by data analysis and modelling, combining variables such as vegetation, fuel loads, topography and infrastructure. Using aerial imagery, plantations or crops can be analysed and mapped for health/disease/infestation, or quantitative analysis. Modelling topography for flood events can be applied to town and land use planning, and has been used for insurance estimates.
Develop and Supply Maps
Information provided visually on a map is worth a thousand words – and is easier to understand. We supply customised hardcopy maps up to A0 size, and in digital format for insertion in documents or publications. We develop maps for high quality display purposes, strategic planning, or highly detailed operations maps.
