Mapping

Maps are a very powerful way to view information. With the assistance of technology, we have the ability to create interactive maps that display numerous layers of information. The problem most companies are facing is the inability to produce maps in-house. By using the latest technological tools and methods, Innovative-GIS can create a wide range of custom maps. Innovative-GIS's mapping services are composed of deed interpretation (legal survey descriptions) and data validation to create accurate maps.

The technicians at Innovative-GIS are educated and trained in the most cutting edge methodologies available. Every map created by Innovative-GIS endures a rigorous process of data validation and polygon creation quality control to ensure accuracy.

Types of Maps

All maps can be mapped per surface owner or mineral owner.

  • LandnMore Web Map - An online accessible web site that displays a map.
  • Hard Copy Maps - 8.5" x 11" map.
  • Presentation Maps - 44" x 36" map.
  • Map Book - A book that includes indexed maps and a CD with plats in PDF; used for filing or presentation purposes.
  • Polygon Creation - Technicians will create polygon shapes based on the legal description and deliver them to the client.
  • Conversions - DXF or CAD files can be converted to GIS formats.
  • Onsite Mapping - An Innovative-GIS technician will be sent to the client location to assist mapping of a project. Exceptionally self-sufficient on-site technicians, trained in the use of GIS software and survey instruments are readily available to resolve spatial issues.
  • Area of Interest Mapping - Includes area of interest project maps, unit maps, leasehold data, seismic maps and plat maps
  • Intelligent PDF Maps - Act as a regualr map, but is delivered in PDF format. The intelligent map is a unique form of a hard copy map in that it enables the user to turn on or off layers of attribute information to view precisely what is needed but also have the ability to view all of the information related to that area.

Overview

The Innovative-GIS's mapping department began in 2002 with the goal of providing accurate and precise information to aid energy industries. Reliable, detailed information is essential to making good decisions. From land surface to mineral rights, Innovative-GIS provides detailed maps that aid customers in important decision making and project planning.

Customizable Spatial Analysis

Using the latest technological tools and methods, the Innovative-GIS mapping team creates detailed project specific maps that help clients determine such things as where to construct wind turbines, locate mineral/surface owners, position oil & gas efforts, install utilities for telecommunications and plan for efficient and beneficial land use. We take time to fully understand what you hope to accomplish with the use of your custom maps so that we can create the exact map to help you reach your business goals.

Web Based Mapping

Web based GIS mapping (LandnMore) provides access to interactive mapping, spatial analysis, and geographic data for use both inside your organization and for your clients. Innovative-GIS can provide customizable online mapping solutions without the high cost of hardware or constant worries of maintenance. These solutions can range from simple attribute mapping to complex analysis, all on a web based application that is secure and accessible through any internet connection. Innovative-GIS hosts and monitors all of the applications associated with web based GIS mapping (LandnMore) so your information will always be safe and accessible. Users may also request information back-ups to be delivered in any format to their offices for in-house storage.
