LSA Associates, Inc. is a leader in using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) applied technology for land use analysis, resource management, and environmental assessment. GIS is more than just a mapping program; it is a powerful planning and analytical tool that enables both quantitative and qualitative data to be recorded, stored, retrieved, displayed, and analyzed. From Global Positioning System (GPS) data collection to postprocessing data analysis and map production and presentation, LSA is able to meet the needs of our clients.

LSA is a business partner with ESRI. We use ESRI's ArcGIS for day-today operations, ArcPAD in support of field collection services, and ArcServer to publish data and analysis. We offer full support of more than 12 extensions to ArcGIS, including customization of stand-alone applications.

Long known as an innovator in the fields of environmental analysis and resource management, LSA has incorporated GIS into all of
our professional disciplines. GIS capabilities also enable LSA to accept and incorporate a wide variety of digital data from clients and other firms working as part of a multi disciplinary team.
