Engage a Cartographer
Be honest. You've drawn lines on images and taken screen shots from Google, haven't you? Not only are you responsible for geographical errors, but poor presentation undermines the quality of your work. Have a cartographer (map maker) draft you a professional map for your end product or report.
Our traditional map making is fast, accurate, reliable and of the highest quality. We will supplement your data with authoritative base layers, the latestest and highest quality imagery and presented it in a well designed, professional layout. Not only that, we are experts at our craft and very quick at what we do so you will be suprised to see how low our rates are.
Want to take it to the next level? Work with us in designing a web map, web application, data collection form or mobile mapping system. These dynamic mapping tools are great for evolving data, field collection needs, collaboration, or public data collection.

Project Examples
Proposed Wind Farm visibility and noise analysis
Objective:
To represent the visual impact, shadow flicker and noise generated by proposed wind turbines and display it in a series of maps, and a 3d web mapping application.
How:
Our client was in the early stages of investigating the potential of installing wind turbines on a site. As an initial step of due diligence, they wanted to know the visibility of the turbines from certain vantage points, to understand what areas might be impacted by potential shadow flicker, and how far the noise would travel.
Result:
The analysis was done and presented in a suite of technical maps published at A2 scale for large format printing. The data was also presented in a 3d web application where the client could navigate around and view the turbines from a range of perspectives.
Spatial modelling and data presentation
Objective:
Use point data on water quality taken from a stream by a consultant and visualise the water quality in un-sampled areas of the stream.
How:
In conjunction with the consultant, TerraLab developed a method for taking a limited set of water quality measurements and producing a model that showed the change in each water quality parameter throughout the stream.
Result:
The project resulted in the production of a set of maps that used colour intensity as a proxy for water quality. The maps were used in reports for to aid in technical discussion about the changes in stream water quality.
