We offer consulting expertise in a wide range of custom-built hardware and/or software solutions.

Computerized Mapping
 

To create a digital map, one needs only the source data and a renderer that can turn that data into imagery.

Our custom map renderers can create beautiful maps on any system from embedded to Linux to Windows.

GIS Database Conversion
 

Before any computerized mapping application can render a map, it needs source data.

We have been working with GIS source data in a multitude of formats during all of the years since building our first product in 2002. Governments at all levels have GIS databases for all kinds of things from streets, parcels and towns to political boundaries and airspace. Any of these types of geographical data can be rendered on a map -- it just requires a source for the data, and that the data be packaged in a suitable format for the mapping application to use.

Sensor/Receiver Data Interfacing
 

Many mapping applications include the use of live data. For example, from a GPS or Weather receiver.

We have interfaced with numerous 3rd party devices including (but not limited to) GPS, attitude-heading reference systems (AHRS), weather receivers, and aerial traffic receivers.

Avionics Hardware & Embedded Software
 

All of the above needs a computer platform of some kind to run the programs we write -- so we've also built our own hardware to fill that need.

These pictures are from an ARM9 avionics instrument that we built from scratch. Although designed for avionics, the little computers would also make excellent industrial automation controllers.
