The spatial nature of natural resource projects often requires specialized geographic data management. Water & Earth Technologies, Inc. (WET) offers a full range of a Geographic Information System (GIS) services to help you collect, manage, analyze, and display that spatial data. WET utilizes Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (ESRI) products such as ARC/INFO and ArcView to build and maintain GIS products..

Data collection
WET can help you collect spatial data by utilizing Global Positioning System (GPS) technology, digitizing existing data sources, or by translating information from other data formats such as AutoCAD.

Data analysis
The amount of spatial data can increase quickly depending on the size of your project. But whether you need to analyze large geographic data sets or small ones, a GIS can be a great tool to show spatial relationships and clarify complex geographic conditions.

Data management
Database design and development are critical components of any GIS project. Our experience will ensure that your projects’ spatial data component is well organized and robust right from the start.

Data display
By linking tabular and spatial data it becomes possible to visualize otherwise abstract data. Conveying a message with a picture can be much more powerful than presenting the same data in tabular form.

Automation and Customization
All of the above tasks can be automated with the help of Avenue or ARC Macro Language (AML) programming to provide you with powerful desktop GIS solutions. A customized Desktop GIS is easy to use and will put your geographical data right at your fingertips.
