We use data from numerous government and third party sources. Digital map data exists for virtually the whole world and is available in various formats, scales, detail, etc. We assess our clients’ needs individually and make decisions after that to determine the best data source. If appropriate digital data does not exist then we can scan existing hard copy maps to use as the base for a new map.
