IRIS offers a comprehensive consulting and contracting service to

software or hardware, but is a ''user'' and as such, consults and

the client.
IRIS can fulfill many different roles in the implementation of
GIS technology from assisting the public and private sector to
setup and utilize their own systems to the design and execution
of digital mapping projects at any scale. IRIS can audit the
client's resources and identify the needs for data, the quality
of existing data, identify gaps in the data and human resources,
and recommend solutions. IRIS ensures that the client can access
and use the data as quickly as possible in concert with trained
personnel, and will follow client progress through successive
steps in development and use of the technology.
