Our collaborators
We work with industry partners & associations to tackle problems of all sizes.
Integrating data & science
As environmental challenges intensify, integrating related data becomes essential. Our sensors and software provide extensive tools to collect, assess and understand your observations. Web tools offer further analytics and data visualization across disciplines and data types.
For example, real-time monitoring and coordination with SCADA control rooms or field crews allow for operational adjustments and improvements. Or hyperlocal rain forecasts can inform water storage decisions, prioritize BMP maintenance, or maximize irrigation water.
Empowering & engaging
Educating decision-makers and rallying public support is a winning strategy to solve complex challenges. Partnerships with public agencies, utilities, private companies and not-for-profit organizations demonstrate the power of information sharing. Innovative web services and open data standards deliver accurate, integrated insights to support initiatives and correct misunderstandings.
From collection and storage to analysis and reporting surface water and groundwater data, we are a much sought-after IT partner for hardware and software that clients configure to the unique needs of their own work processes and organizational goals.
Collaboration
Client satisfaction
Client satisfaction is important to us. Evaluations by our clients focus on three elements: qualified employees, results-oriented work, and quality software. Our market leadership cannot be accomplished without understanding our clients & their needs as they evolve.
Collaboration
Our commitment to quality management and information security, as attested by ISO certifications and renewals, have established strategic partnerships with the following organizations equally esteemed:
- With Esri Inc., we make it possible to follow extreme events in space & time to increase lead and response time critical to take protective measures that keep people safe.
We are among the 10% of Esri partners approved for the ArcGIS System Ready Specialty because we consistently adopt & integrate new ArcGIS software releases into our solutions, services, or content.
- Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) brings together 450 international businesses, authorities & universities to develop open interface standards. With a lead role in the Hydrology Domain Working Group, we helped to develop modern open standards for water data exchange such as WaterML2 to support interoperability of water data.
- Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Science (CUAHSI) represents more than 130 U.S. universities & international organizations focused on water sciences. While it receives support from the National Science Foundation, corporate members like us help future generations of scientists innovate and refine community modeling, data science and hydrologic education.
