Geographical Information Systems

Arora and Associates, P.C.'s multidiscipline Geographical Information Systems (GIS) group offers extensive GIS services on engineering, transportation, public safety and utility projects for public and private organizations. For both small and large assignments, we provide GIS data development, analysis and training, and implement GIS software and hardware to meet the needs of our clients with state-of-the-art, yet cost-effective, technology and practices. In conjunction with our Survey Department, the GIS group develops and updates zoning maps, base mapping and tax parcel development, land use mapping, stormwater management and watershed conservation plans, and emergency response plans. As part of our commitment to innovative solutions, we utilize our GIS group for all of our in-house engineering design projects as well.

We currently run ESRI, MicroStation, Autodesk, GlobalMapper, Google Earth, Trimble Pathfinder Office and a number of additional GIS, GPS and mapping packages. ESRI's ArcReader GIS software is a FREE, easy to use mapping application that allows users to utilize GIS data with NO COST for software licenses. ArcReader has been described as the 'Adobe PDF of GIS', allowing utilization of GIS data without editing capabilities.

Arora can provide ArcReader, packaged with the GIS data that is available, for any project. Color aerials, USGS quadrangle maps, road centerline, streams, FEMA flood maps, and tax parcels are just a few of the GIS data layers that are available for free*. This provides an easy to use customized mapping/GIS software package that is not limited by software licenses.

Please contact Arora to discuss how we can help with your ArcReader project or any other GIS related projects.

Please see the Geographical Information Systems Projects page for specific information about some of Arora's most recent projects.

*Not all layers are available statewide or nationwide. Some layers may need to be purchased. Varies by state.
