Geographic Information Systems & Information Management Technology

Geographic Information Systems

Since 1989, Chester Engineers has helped a wide range of municipal, government and utility clients plan, create and implement Geographic Information Systems. More than simply digital mapping of assets, our innovative GIS solutions help customers to better manage their communities and utilities. We empower clients to meet the 21st-century imperatives of compliance, security, emergency response, customer service and planning more efficiently and cost-effectively.

We provide both consulting and turnkey project services that include:
  • Needs analysis to target a GIS solution to specific requirements.
  • Database design that optimizes performance and ensures integration with existing applications and platforms.
  • Base mapping to ensure a solid, practical foundation for your GIS.
  • Data acquisition and conversion to populate the GIS.
  • Application development that creates easy-to-use applications that integrate GIS within your day-to-day operations, even for non-GIS professionals.
  • Installation of GIS databases and software on existing systems, as well as specification, purchase and installation of dedicated systems.
  • Data maintenance that helps keep GIS databases current as assets change, along with phone and on-site support.
  • Internet GIS services, including interface development and implementation, site and database maintenance, and web hosting, to enable online access of GIS data by end-users.
  • Training through Chester's GIS Learning Center, to create internal proficiency and to help customers meet licensing requirements.

We support your GIS project with a full range of services that help ensure interoperability with related systems and platforms, and successful implementation of an enterprise GIS.



Information Management Technology

Chester offers broad-based information management technology (IMT) expertise that helps clients leverage the power of information technology in ways that boost efficiency, reduce costs and add quantifiable value to their operations and the services they provide.

Our IMT professionals evaluate, design and implement computer network solutions for both public- and private-sector clients. Chester offers both Microsoft Windows and Linux-based solutions, providing customers with the flexibility to select the operating environment and systems that best meets their unique requirements.

Chester's database programming and interface design services help clients optimize the power of their data, even when information is spread across disparate databases residing at different organizations or locations. Customized database interface designs enable you to link a wide range of databases into a single dataset, providing seamless, transparent access across your organization. Our extensive software code library and experience enable us to create sophisticated solutions tailored to even the most complex data management needs.

For more specific applications, we also offer packaged groundwater, surface water, and air quality tools and modeling software for direct purchase.
