GIS DEPARTMENT:

Since establishment in 2007 Geo Search has always been trying to expand its services related to the core ac�vi�es of the company. In 2015 the company decided to establish its GIS department which is interrelated to its surveying and mapping services. Hence, the company a�racted the resources including professionals in GIS field to provide its clients with GIS services. The mission of the department is to provide its clients with wide range of value added, complete and high quality Geographic Informa�on System services. Geo Search GIS department provides its domes�c and interna�onal clients with complete por�olio of programming & networking and remote sensing, mapping, photogrammetry, Surveying and trainings.

Geo Search GIS Services:GIS in general could be used in different fields that requires a large amount of data to be managed and

analyzed. Geo Search GIS department is specifically interested to provide its clients with the following GIS

fields:


Web GIS is a type of distributed information system, comprising at least a server and a client, where the server is a GIS server and the client is a web browser, desktop application, or mobile application. In its simplest form, web GIS can be defined as any GIS that uses web technology to communicate between a server and a client.

Web GIS


Advantages of Web GIS:A Global Reach Unified Updates Easy To Use And Divers Applications Low Cost As Averaged By The Number Of Users Better Cross-platform CapabilityA Large Number Of Users

GIS SERVICES: Programming & Networking

Mobile GIS is taking Geographic Information Systems (GIS) out of the office and into the field. A

mobile GIS allows folks out in the field to capture, store, update, manipulate, analyze, and display

geospatial data and information. Mobile GIS integrates one or more of the following technologies:

* mobile devices (such as a PDA, tablet, or laptop computer, and in some countries mobile

phones) * Geographic Information System (GIS) software * the Global Positioning System (GPS)

* wireless communications for Internet-based GIS access.

Benefits of Mobile GIS

· Improves efficiency and accuracy of field operations

· Provides rapid data collection and seamless data integration

· Replaces paper-based workflows

· Helps you make timely and informed decisions
