Spatial Management Information Solutions (SMIS)

Lidwala’s SMIS discipline specialises in the integration of spatial information systems

with traditional information technology

Overview

Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and related technologies unlocks the full potential of data by leveraging the power of maps and spatial analysis. This provides unparalleled insight into different facets of data that were previously unseen, converting raw data into valuable information. GIS can empower organisations through detailed knowledge regarding their assets and workflows, helping them solve problems, increase productivity and stay competitive.

At Lidwala, our SMIS team develops dynamic spatial management information solutions with applications in various sectors of industry, including, civil and structural engineering (such as asset and utilities management), town planning, environmental management (such as feasibility studies, spatial analysis and sensitivity mapping) and the geographical information industry itself.
