Using the most advanced and accurate Global Positioning Systems (GPS) technology available, mapping is completed efficiently and accurately.  GPS technology allows efficient mapping of features located in areas that are remote or inaccessible when using traditional mapping techniques.  Sphere 3 Environmental uses GPS mapping equipment that provides real world coordinate locations with one meter accuracy. Sphere 3 Environmental produces maps in color or black and white and in a variety of sizes.  Using the most up-to-date mapping software, Sphere 3 prints accurate GPS-mapped features on digital USGS topographic maps.

A Geographic Information System (GIS) is an efficient and practical solution for collecting, analyzing, organizing, storing and displaying mapping information required for effective management and planning.  GIS allows for integration of information collected at different times, on different scales, and via different methods.  Information maintained in a GIS can be accessed quickly and updated easily when changes occur.  Information on paper maps may be more useful when transferred to a digital form.  Our mapping automation uses state-of-the-art techniques to provide maximum accuracy and compatibility with existing digital databases.
