After the devastating 12 January 2010 earthquake in Haiti, international aid agencies deployed Surveylab ikeGPS mobile solutions to capture GIS data and support disaster relief planning. Across North America, Europe, South Asia and Oceania, ikeGPS geospatial tools are in the hands of GIS analysts and technicians undertaking sophisticated infrastructure asset mapping, disaster preparedness initiatives, emergency relief programs and civil engineering projects. Surveylab's uniquely integrated GIS data collectors allow users to safely standoff and rapidly capture remote GPS positional data, take geotagged photographs, attribute information, and import data into mapping applications such as ESRI ArcPad and ArcGIS. www.ikeGPS.com
GIS technology is used to map, measure and monitor assets and environmental conditions. The technology can be found mapping utility infrastructure, planning workflows, emergency and disaster scenario planning, hazard identification and risk mitigation, natural disaster response and damage assessment, geological surveys, military and civil engineering, flood plains, archaeology sites, and environmental impact assessments.
Surveylab ikeGPS solutions are used by GIS specialists within local and central government, municipal and federal agencies, aid organisations and NGOs, military and civil engineers, utilities, and GIS engineering consultancies.
Surveylab want to reach out to expats via Pass It On and GIS analysts and engineers using GIS mapping technologies.
