Geographic Information Systems Services
Asset Mapping & Visualisation
From drone surveys to digitised basemaps, we turn your physical assets into accurate, interactive maps. Whether it’s water meters, soil sensors, or historic data, we make it easy to locate, manage, and share information in one place.
GIS Reporting & Dashboards
Get instant insights with custom dashboards and reports that show the information you need most. We design clear, interactive reporting tools — perfect for monitoring asset conditions, tracking maintenance, or sharing updates with non-technical stakeholders.
Automated Data Integration
Keeping data accurate across different systems is a challenge. We use automation tools to keep everything in sync, so you can avoid duplication and trust that your teams are always working from the same up-to-date information.
Visual Storytelling (Story Maps)
Complex data doesn’t need to be complicated. We build interactive story maps that turn technical information into engaging, easy-to-understand visuals — ideal for council submissions, planning scenarios, or public consultation.
Outsourced GIS Support
Need extra capacity but don’t want the overhead of hiring full-time staff? Our GIS team provides flexible support for councils and organisations under pressure, giving you access to expertise exactly when you need it.
Why it Matters
Our GIS services save time, improve communication and make better decision possible, all while giving your team and stakeholders a clear picture of the data that matters most.
What is Geographic Information Systems (GIS)?
Geographic Information System (GIS) involves the digital mapping and analysis of spatial data. At Eliot Sinclair, we leverage GIS to connect, visualise and analyse location-based information. Our GIS services transform diverse data inputs into comprehensive spatial data products on web-based platforms, tailored for easy use and secure sharing. By integrating your business and asset data with spatial tools, we enable efficient decision-making and project management. Combined with our in-house surveying team, we provide end-to-end data collection, validation, and delivery, ensuring accurate data ready for integration into asset databases.

Testimonial | Mātai Consultant Ltd
“It's been invaluable to work with some experts in that field”
“We've been working with Eliot Sinclair to get a GIS platform. That involves mapping all the scheme farms, approximately 25,000 hectares of irrigated ground to get all the real detail of land use; of effluent areas, irrigated areas, all the point source data, so we can manage our environmental impact effectively. It's been invaluable to work with some experts in that field and the personnel within Eliot Sinclair have been capable and responsive, which has made our job a lot easier.”
