Data + Maps = Decision Making Power

Wightman GIS

Imagine the value of dynamic data that guides money-saving preventative maintenance, informs capital investment planning, averts costly downtime stemming from equipment failure, and even saves lives during emergencies. These are a few of the benefits of partnering with the Wightman GIS team.

GIS, or geographic information system, brings data and maps together. Anything with fixed coordinates - buildings, mechanical systems, roads, water and sewer systems, energy networks, land improvements – can be managed with GIS. It creates a powerful decision-making tool useful for asset management, fiscal planning, economic development, and public safety pre-incident preparation.

Instead of referencing bulky rolled blueprints, keeping track of thick binders full of coffee-stained documents, or relying on information stored in people’s heads, GIS stores, manages, and makes valuable information instantly accessible to decision makers throughout your organization. 

We design your system using custom mapping, expert database design, and integration of your existing documents to automate data visually. We help you implement your GIS, train your staff, and provide on-going hosting and support to keep it running smoothly.
