Automated Mapping and Facility Management
Research and Development
Data Distribution
Devel-Tech is an independent and experienced consultant with many
years of industry experience in addition to strong academic
backgrounds in the vast capabilities of GIS and mapping.
Devel-Tech is totally independent of any hardware, conversion, or
other vendors in the disciplines of GIS, MIS, and Remote Sensing.
In order to leverage our Geomatics expertise into specific
application areas or to integrate emerging technologies,
Devel-Tech actively pursues cooperative partnerships with private
industry organizations. A number of such joint initiatives are
currently underway and Devel-Tech is open to discussing all such
mutually beneficial undertakings.
DIGITAL MAPPING AND DATA CONVERSION
Devel-Tech is an experienced industry leader in Digital Mapping
and Data Conversion. Our experience covers a full range of data
acquisition sources including hard copy map conversion, global
positioning systems (GPS) and remote sensing. We have a
proven record working with both public and private sector
agencies including the Department of National Defense (DND),
Geomatics Canada, the Canadian Hydrographic Service (CHS), and
the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).
This expertise covers the following areas: Topographic and Cadastral Mapping
Hydrographic Mapping
Digital Elevation Modeling
Hardcopy Document Conversion
Data Format Conversion
Custom Mapping Applications
Land Use/Land Cover Mapping
In order to provide these services Devel-Tech is licensed for all
of the predominant commercial softwares used in the GIS market
today, as noted below. These softwares have been augmented with
an extensive array of in-house developed applications to
assist in data manipulation, format conversion, and quality
control.
CARIS (GIS and Object Oriented GIS)
ARC/INFO (GIS)
MAPINFO (GIS)
PAMAP (GIS)
AutoCAD MAP (GIS,CAD)
Intergraph MicroStation (CAD)
PCI Easi/Pace (Remote Sensing)
ORACLE (RDBMS)

REMOTE SENSING
Since 1990, Devel-Tech has been actively involved in the field of
data acquisition via Remote Sensing (RS), utilizing aerial
photography and satellite imageries. Devel-Tech provides data
acquisition from satellite imagery via the following media: LANDSAT - TM®
SPOT®
RADARSAT®
RADAR (ERS1, JERS, Airborne SAR)
IRS-1C®
We offer consulting services to environmental and natural
resource managers in the public and private sectors. These
services are provided in data gathering and map updating for the
resource industry (i.e. mining, agriculture, forestry, hydrology,
environmental) by Remote Sensing; including acquisition of remote
imagery, geo-referencing and geometric correction,
ortho-rectification, classification and analysis, and porting to
GIS environments and database implementation.
Use of RS and GIS technologies, in many cases, is the only
realistic and cost effective method to collect and analyze basic
land-based information, such as mineral potential and
mine-development planning, land capability, soil erosion, forest
fire and forest reserve management, and slope stability.
MIS/GIS
Devel-Tech provides a complete range of MIS/GIS System
Development services, from Needs Analysis, to System
Specification - Design, to System Implementation and Maintenance.
We strive to provide the most effective solutions to clients'
needs, whether using off-the-shelf software or developing custom
made programs and solutions. In an environment of rapidly
changing technologies, we provide the services necessary to meet
the client's needs in the on-going struggle to improve
productivity and profitability.
Our expertise in systems development includes: System Design and Engineering
Development of custom GIS application software

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Since 1992, Devel-Tech has been undertaking Research and
Development projects aimed at applying advanced technologies to
the Geomatics and Resource Management Sectors. These projects
have been based upon the following themes: Better resource management through the integration of optical and
radar satellite imagery; for Agriculture, Forestry, Geology and
Mining.
Image Processing and Analysis applications utilizing Artificial
Intelligence (i.e. Neural Network and Fuzzy Logic).
Application of Hyper-spectral Imagery to Monitoring and Resource
Management applications.
DATA DISTRIBUTION
Devel-Tech is an Imaging Network Partner for Space Imaging's
CarterraTM Products. As part of this network, Devel-Tech provides
access to the full range of Carterra image products.
We are particularly excited to announce the arrival of imagery
from Space Imaging's IKONOS Satellite. IKONOS is the world's
first commercial satellite capable of obtaining 1 meter
panchromatic (black and white) and 4 meter multispectral (color)
imagery.
A "pan sharpened" product is also available that combines the
spatial content of the 1m pan and the 4m multispectral data.
IKONOS has a flexible image collection system that allows for
efficient data collection over specific target areas.
Contact us to learn more about these products, or enquire about
pricing and availability.
IKONOS FACTS: Spectral Resolution
Panchromatic: 0.45 - 0.90 microns
Multispectral: #1: Blue 0.45 - 0.52 microns
#2: Green 0.52 - 0.60 microns
#3: Red 0.63 - 0.69 microns
#4: Near IR 0.76 - 0.90 microns
Devel-Tech® is a distributor of National Topographic Data Base
and Canadian Road Network vector data products from Geomatics
Canada.
The National Topographic Data Base (NTDB) is a digital data base
developed by Geomatics Canada. It covers the entire Canadian
landmass and contains the features normally found on topographic
maps at the scales of 1:50,000 and 1:250 000: hydrography,
hypsography (contours), vegetation, the road network, the rail
network, the electric power network, designated area, land form,
wetlands, and manmade features. Click here to view the available
NTDB topographic maps at the 1:50,000 and 1:250 000 scales.
The Canadian Road Network (CRN) is the name of the national
digital information base of Canada's road infrastructure. The
