Mapping & Cartography for Presentations

We produce posters and graphics for brochures and publicity displays, and technical plans for development design specifications and legal documents.
We can distribute spatial data from geodatabases using internet map servers, mashups on Google Earth, and virtual reality 3D visualisations.

The visualisation of geographic data is NOT the same as a computer graphic or CAD.

There are a number of ways that geographic information can be displayed.
2-Dimensional map visualisations can be produced from geographic databases and are used for reports and poster displays. They can also be displayed in a GIS viewer where the map data can be queried.
 
3-Dimensional and Virtual Environments can be produced from databases and used for Virtual Reality displays and "flythrough's", and for scenario simulations.
 
What is a Virtual Environment?
Geographic 3D virtual environments allow your data to be displayed interacting with other data and geographic information in three dimensions. Scenes can be viewed from any angle (both above and below ground level) and element properties can be queried. Data can be visualised in context with other information more effectively and flexibly than on a 2 dimensional display such as a plan or map. These can also be projected in stereo on a Geowall.
This means a better understanding and communication of your data in the context of other geographic information and more effective decision support.
 
A geographic information system (GIS) can be used to display information. Geographic data can be assembled, displayed, queried and analysed in context.
 
Your data can be presented on Google Earth in a mashup. This is an effective way to present information within a context that others can understand.
