Our unique process ensures the accuracy you demand and the consistency you rely on.
Data collection
Our collection process for your data is the most thorough, accurate and reliable compilation method available. First, our highly qualified GIS professionals conduct Field Verification and Point-Based Mapping, which includes:
- All address locations, commercial and residential
- All roads, public and private
- Visible road assets that impact routing
- All related emergency and transportation features, like hydrants, landmarks, etc.
Data processing
Once collection is complete, we conduct extensive discrepancy reporting on the field-verified data, comparing it against existing databases. We then simulate calls to 911 (when we have the available ALI database) from every recorded address point to ensure the quality of your data and the safety of your community.
Despite the intricate detail work involved, our teams complete the field collection and data processing work for a full turnover of your county's data in three months or less*. This includes all municipalities, private developments and other border areas.
Data maintenance
Maintenance is the most important part of upholding the quality and accuracy of your dataset — preserving the integrity of the data and allowing it to evolve with an ever-changing community where addresses and road networks change every day, new homes are constructed and new roadways installed.

Data access
Because these datasets are so comprehensive and meet the needs of all government offices, multiple agencies securely access this information on a regular basis — and often find their methods of copying, changing and storing variations of data in multiple places cumbersome and difficult to manage.
To address this challenge, we store your information on web-accessible servers, ensuring that all users access the same data, at the same place, in the same way. Our Data Maintenance solution is easy to use and allows government employees to easily and efficiently create, modify, and distribute road and address data across departmental lines — sharing the responsibility to keep data up-to-date — so the mapping system maintains its relevance and accuracy well into the future.
