Hollister-Powell & Associates Community Assessments

A New & Fresh Approach to Community Assessments! As part of our overall strategic plan for Regional and/or Community Assessments, GeoSpective Technologies™ believes that emphasis on a GIS approach is imperative to integral data analysis. A community assessment needs GIS for many reasons:

Data is Spatially Driven: Data elements in any assessment either directly/or indirectly have a relational geographic component. Whether you’re analyzing Head Start sites, Child Care Centers, Service Regions, or anticipating Regional Growth, you’re assessing, impacting and/or influencing spatial data.

Advances in Modern GIS Capabilities: Today’s GIS Products have the ability to quickly overlay numerous data layers in an interactive computer model allowing easy aggregation of data attributes. Focus areas can quickly be derived, isolated, analyzed, tabulated, and represented in Tables, Graphs, or Maps with the click of a few buttons.

A Picture’s Worth a Thousand Words: Today’s decision-makers simply don’t have an abundance of time. They’re looking for analysis that is quick, clear, easy to understand & disseminate into an action plan. A GIS approach provides just that!

Electronic Documents: GST Assessments are output in web-accessible formats such as “.pdf”. You can easily view/share text, charts, graphs & high quality maps from your assessment.
