Geographic Information Systems
GIS is a spatial approach to combining, analyzing, and displaying information and data. By integrating hardware, software, and data, GIS allows us to view, understand, question, interpret, and visualize data in many ways that reveal relationships, patterns, and trends in the form of maps, globes, reports, and charts. As a fully licensed operator of ESRI ArcInfo 10, PCI Geomatica, Trimble Pathfinder Office, and Garmin Mapsource software, Cascade can perform technically advanced spatial analysis, provide high accuracy GPS surveying, and produce top quality cartographic mapping output.
Spatial Analysis
With the ability to integrate multiple layers of spatial data from a variety sources, Cascade examines spatial overlays and geographic relationships within the data for a variety of applicaitons, including land use assessments, environmental opportunities and constraints, wildlife studies, habitat modelling, commercial recreation operations, view-shed analysis, watershed delineation and many more.
GPS Surveying
Cascade is proud to own and operate leading edge GPS equipment including standard hand held units such as the Garmin GPSMAP 62 and high end decimeter accuracy pack mounted setups such as the GLONASS enabled Trimble ProXRT receiver equipped with a Zephyr antenna and Nomad data logger.
