Williamson Consulting provides custom spatial data mapping/plotting, digitizing, analysis, management and conversion for forest land managers, private landowners, corporations and government agencies. We employ and develop the latest technologies of ArcInfo and ArcView to provide clients with the best possible product. GIS (Geographic Information Systems) technologies and products are not just for forestlands and forestland managers. Approximately 80% of all information has a geographic component. GIS databases are being continually developed by many entities. All levels of government are getting involved in GIS and many will be providing access to public information by way of GIS. Applications can be found in the areas of public and private utilities (water, sewer, septic, electrical etc.), city parks, mining claims, private urban and rural lands just to name a few.
