SUSTAINABILITY: MAPPING & GIS

Taking a Moment to Think

Sustainability is a challenging premise - it encourages broad levels of thinking and awareness that is not always easy. It takes into consideration a broad scope of economic, social and environmental relationships and frame decision-making within this awareness. It's not always pretty, shiny or even attractive smelling - often challenging environmentalist and capitalist driven ideologies alike, but it offers a moment to think and create smart and considerate solutions...or at least it should.  Now that we've alienated everyone, Access Geographic offers innovative services and solutions that leverage geography to help with sustainability initiatives and programs.

Geographic Awareness Matters

Accurate geographic information is the foundation of effective Sustainability Analytics. Without an accurate and current geographic awareness, any sustainability effort is limited in perspective and misses its fundamental intent.  Fortunately, effective Mapping Services (including Color-Infrared) and (GIS) Geographic Information Systems) integrate diverse sources of information - providing a better sense of relationships and subsequent opportunities and challenges. From an informed perspective, decision-making can respect and take into consideration the diverse variables necessary for effective Sustainability Analytics.

Sustainable Planning

Getting ahead of the curve, avoiding problems before they occur and creating synergic relationships makes informed planning critical to Sustainable Practices. Understanding a situation and being able to planning accordingly takes a deep awareness that geographic information offers. Access Geographic provides useful Mapping Services and GIS (Geographic Information System) solutions that support these requirements.

Operations & Facilities Management

From local government to industrial operations and facilities management, having a handle on the condition of infrastructure, systems and workflows has a direct link to understanding the relationships and patterns that can lead to effective sustainable decision-making.  This can take the form of identifying conservation opportunities (See Thermal Mapping) and supporting Preventative Maintenance Programs that improve process efficiency. Access Geographic offers innovative Mapping Services and GIS (Geographic Information System) solutions that guide sustainability reviews and modifications within Operations and Facilities Management Programs.

Smart City Programs

Based on the idea of real-time integrated awareness, the 'Smart City' initiatives are frequently associated with Urban Sustainability Efforts due to its emphasis on awareness and efficiency.  Driven by the collection, integration and visualization of inputs, GIS (Geographic Information System) solution are at their core.  This process not only uncovers opportunities but can identify arising problems that can be address through Preventative Maintenance Programs better managing resources. Access Geographic is especially equipped to provide a solid backbone of geospatial information and solutions necessary to drive a successful Smart City Program (Learn More).

Clean & Renewable Energy

Geographic awareness is important for the planning and managing Clean Energy programs.  This is particularly true when most rely heavily on subtle environmental conditions and continuous monitoring for their success such as (Solar Farms: Learn More) and (Wind Farms: Learn More). Access Geographic offers effective services and solutions that support the planning, operation and maintenance of Clean & Renewable Energy Operations.
