GIS Applications Development

Applications Development

SBL provides customised GIS Application Development according to the specific requirements as defined by our clients. We are committed to developing not just any solution but the best solution and, together with the client, before any development work begins, we take time to interrogate every aspect of the problem that the client wishes to solve. It is only once this process has been satisfactorily completed that we will present recommendations as to the best solution. Applications can be delivered either through commercial or open source platforms and include: map customisation, custom tool development, application migration, Web GIS, mobile GIS. Our project management process consists of the following stages: specification and requirements analysis, recommendations, design, coding, testing, training, deployment, ongoing support.

Enterprise GIS Project Management

Enterprise GIS Project Management is the broad-spectrum framework through which an entire organisation can be linked through various geospatial data and services. It creates a platform by which a number of users can share, manage and use spatial data for a variety of uses that include data creation, modification, visualisation and distribution.

SBL's Enterprise GIS Project Management services address the complete needs of all departments within an organisation. We fully integrate the legacy data, information and systems into user- friendly customised applications which in turn help to improve resource allocation and decision making processes. Our enterprise GIS solutions have enabled our clients to share maps and data among users and across departments, from a single user to thousands of users, while conforming to the organisation's existing systems and environments. They have been used by large spatial data repositories such as hubs, warehouses and clearing houses. These repositories vary enormously in their complexity, ranging from a simple file sharing facility to a network of spatially enabled databases populated by automated feeds from business applications. The repositories are often accompanied by metadata catalogues, which help users to locate and evaluate the spatial information and run complex queries based upon it.

Everything happens somewhere, and by adopting a location-based approach to business management, organisations will be far better equipped to deal with the data avalanche that is predicted to take place over the next decade. Indeed now is the time to bring together all the various disciplines within the GI spectrum - Photogrammetry, Geo-referencing, Computer-aided Design and Drafting (CADD), Database Management Systems (DBMS) - and whilst this might seem daunting to the uninitiated, our knowledge and expertise will ensure that you end up with the most appropriate, cost-effective and sustainable solution with the least disruption possible to your business.
