Frequently Asked Questions

What services do you offer?

I provide a range of services including custom map creations, map exhibits tailored to meet your specific needs, and data analysis to visually show how your data effects the world around you. My expertise ensures that you receive detailed, accurate and insightful information for your projects, customized to your specifications.

What is GIS?

GIS stands for Geographic Information Systems. Essentially, GIS is s set of tools used to display data on a map. This can be as simple as a trail map or a site layout for a special event. But the real power of the tools can be found when analyzing the data to showcase how it relates to the landscape when overlayed across your geographic location.

What data do you use?

I source data from many different reliable sources, including NASA, USGS, Open Street Map and many other publicly available sources. If your project requires something specific that isn’t already available, collection of new data can be completed in the field to add to your project.

How can I request a custom map?

Easy! Send an email to info@northmanmaps.com with your idea. We will be in touch to discuss your needs and how we can help.

What else do you offer?

I also write the Northman Sagas, a series of blogs devoted to mapping and GIS. Check out the latest post!

What industries do you serve?

I serve a variety of industries including museums, publishers, environmental groups, planning organizations, logistics, and emergency services. I provide data-driven insights that enhance operational efficiency and strategic planning, as well as detailed aesthetic maps for exhibits and presentations.

Are these services expensive?

I keep overhead costs very low, and often use free and open source data. However, all projects are unique and require a different amount of labor to source relevant data, review and “clean up” any errors or inconsistencies in the data, and provide customers with the best output possible.
