Canada + International delivery
Based in Ontario. Delivery across Canada and with international partners through on-site, remote, and hybrid engagement.
Capabilities
Core capabilities
Each capability is framed as an outcome: what it supports, what you receive, and how it fits into real delivery.
Spatial Decision Support
Turn data into decision-ready layers, indicators, and dashboards that teams can operate and maintain.
Outputs: dashboards · decision layers · documented workflows
Earth Observation Monitoring
Track change across land, coast, and water systems with repeatable methods suitable for reporting and program decisions.
Outputs: change maps · monitoring indicators · technical briefs
Scaled Analytics (GeoAI where it helps)
Speed up classification, detection, and evidence extraction—while keeping assumptions clear and results auditable.
Outputs: repeatable models · QA notes · reproducible workflows
Hydrospatial & Coastal Intelligence
Support coastal and river programs with shoreline dynamics, flood exposure screening, and decision-ready coastal indicators.
Outputs: screening maps · coastal indicators · advisory briefs
UAV-LiDAR Terrain & 3D Context
Produce high-resolution terrain and 3D context layers that support design, drainage/inundation analysis, and digital-twin readiness.
Outputs: DTM/DSM · 3D context layers · ready-to-use datasets
Risk & Resilience Analytics
Connect hazards to assets and priorities—so leadership can compare options and invest with clarity.
Outputs: risk briefs · scenario maps · resilience inputs
Short Courses & Professional Workshops
Practical training that helps teams adopt EO, GIS, and analytics workflows—focused on real tasks, standards, and QA/QC.
Delivered as short courses, tailored workshops, and hands-on clinics (Canada and international).
Outputs: course materials · exercises & templates · playbooks · handover notes
