Recent GIS Projects

We Energies (Wisconsin Electric Power Company)

We designed and implemented a GIS in the early 1990s that is used today on an almost daily basis for routine management activities on 27,000 acres of hydroelectric project lands in Michigan and northeast Wisconsin. Applications include forest management, mapping endangered and threatened species and archaeological sites, components of an archaeological predictive model, recreational uses, FERC mapping issues, and real estate needs.

Wisconsin Public Service

We have completed several GIS projects on WPS and affiliated lands in Wisconsin and Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. These include GIS applications for FERC Forest Management plans, endangered resources inventories, forest management activities, FERC licensing issues, real estate valuations and transactions, and ownership parcel mapping.

Regions Morgan Keegan (RMK) Timberland Group

GIS Staff Reviewing Maps We initially completed a GIS for ongoing forest land management purposes on 35,000 acres in Oneida and Lincoln Counties, Wisconsin, in the late 1990s. Partial data obtained from the previous owners was utilized and formatted to fit the client’s GIS system in place on other lands nationwide. RMK has recently added thousands more acreage of ownership in northern Wisconsin, for which we provide GIS and forest management services. 

American Transmission Company

To assist right-of-way staff and agents in acquisition projects, we developed a Microsoft Access and GIS application, which is used daily to track and display parcel and project status and right-of-way geographic features.

LandVest

In formal partnership with LandVest, we have provided extensive GIS resource analysis and mapping products to facilitate land brokerage services on over 150,000 acres of timberland in Wisconsin and Michigan. We continue to provide similar brokerage and GIS services to Lake States timberland owners.

Wisconsin DNR State Properties

We completed the GIS conversion and Master table updates for five properties, totaling approximately 23,000 acres, located in Lincoln, Langlade, and Florence Counties, Wisconsin. Work included entering data into the new WISFIRS program.
