Geospatial Services

"Helping people make better decisions using the power of location," the Geospatial Services section of the Innovation & Technology Services (ITS) department plays a pivotal role in Cumberland County. GIS (Geographic Information Systems) serves as a comprehensive framework for gathering, analyzing, and managing data, rooted in the science of geography. It integrates various types of data to provide spatial locations and is capable of organizing this information into visualizations, such as maps, revealing deep insights into data, including patterns, relationships, and situations, and aiding in the execution of smarter, critical, data-driven decisions.

In Cumberland County, the Geospatial Services section is entrusted with the coordination, management, and application of all enterprise GIS functions (CCGIS). This responsibility includes not just the handling of spatial data but also the provision of essential services such as E911 addressing and management, with the exception of Ft. Liberty. The importance of accurate and efficient E911 addressing cannot be overstated, as it is crucial for emergency response and public safety.

Moreover, Geospatial Services extends its expertise beyond governmental functions, offering comprehensive spatial data analysis and custom map creation to businesses, other government entities, and the citizens of Cumberland County. This service plays a critical role in supporting local businesses with location intelligence, aiding in urban planning, environmental management, and public works projects, and enhancing the community's understanding of local geography and resources.

The impact of the Geospatial Services section is profound, as it provides the necessary tools and insights for decision-makers at all levels to leverage the power of location. Through advanced GIS technologies and expert analysis, the team contributes significantly to the operational efficiency and effectiveness of Cumberland County, supporting informed decision-making and fostering a safer, more informed community.
