A GIS (Geographic Information System) is an organized collection of computer hardware, software, geographic data, and personnel designed to efficiently capture, store, update, manipulate, analyze, and display all forms of geographically referenced information. GIS technology can also integrate common database operations, such as query and statistical analysis, with the unique visualization and geographic analysis benefits offered by maps.
In addition to our use of GIS as it relates directly to our wetland related projects, HYDRIK also provides standalone mapping services such as historical mapping for land reclamation, environmental impact analysis, legal cases etc.
