Success Stories:
Industrial Land Reclamation
Since 1993 POINTMAP has helped corporate Environmental Affair Groups manage their maps and data for remediation sites. Some of our purposeful tasks have included updating base maps, constructing GIS projects, and customizing ArcView interfaces to help project managers better organize data, illustrate and report technical information.
"I have been a client of Pointmap since 1993, and they are my 'go-to' mapping services company. Pointmap has consistently provided me, and my clients, with time-critical delivery of important documents, maps, logs, computer files and a broad spectrum of GIS services that repeatedly exceed expectations, all within budget, and within tight time constraints. My job relies on accurate and dependable map services, and I trust Pointmap to deliver quality data and maps that are consistently world class."
Keith B. Rapp, PG, RG, CPG
Project Manager\Senior Hydrogeologist
Brownfield Redevelopment Projects
POINTMAP has created GIS projects for several Brownfield redevelopment sites. Working closely with our client, using historical and current data, we build a project that represents the history of the site while focusing on the full potential of the future site. Our maps are an asset to our client for reporting purposes, public meetings, and regulatory compliance, throughout the redevelopment process.
“My work requires a high degree of accuracy and often has extreme timelines. I am always impressed with the quality and rapid turnaround on difficult assignments. Pointmap always delivers.”
Kate Kleiter, Professional Geologist
Superfund Projects
POINTMAP has worked on several Superfund Projects. One such project is a 160-acre site mandated for environmental restoration by the EPA. The high profile nature of the site demands continual cooperation between the residential community, consultants, contractors, responsible parties, and regulatory officials. Beginning with various historical site plans and survey information, POINTMAP established and maintained an accurate set of maps containing a multitude of information. The maps generated were used to delineate site conditions, illustrate site redevelopment options, and satisfy regulatory compliance and public meeting requirements. POINTMAP is consistently able to help meet the short deliverable time frames often imposed by the state and federal agencies involved.
“When I’m busy collecting data and compiling information for a report I need CAD and GIS support that can manage itself. Pointmap has consistently provided dependable and professional services with quality as the hallmark of their product.”
Emergency Response Projects
POINTMAP has experience working on emergency response situations including a site with a pipeline break which allowed product to seep into the ground and cause groundwater contamination. The site was located near a stream and required a prompt and efficient remediation plan. POINTMAP was assigned the task of quickly gathering available site detail maps to build a GIS project that would help clients evaluate site features and conditions allowing them to make crucial decisions. We also helped generate spatial analysis maps of the source area. These maps became an important element in the location of recovery wells and sampling points.
“When our in-house staff is back logged with CAD and GIS work and we have a deadline and can’t wait. We call Pointmap and their staff is always ready to go. Pointmap is able to work efficiently with our staff to coordinate and produce report figures in a timely manner allowing us to keep our clients satisfied.”
Tax Parcel Data Collection
POINTMAP helped our client acquire parcel information that enabled them to determine the properties located within a 1000 foot radius of their project site. Our research led us to the most useful supplier of this data, saving our client time and money on the mapping portion of their project.
Working with Historical Data and Modern Technology
POINTMAP helped a small community begin the process of mapping burial plots in their cir.1800’s cemetery. New and accurate maps were created from historical plat maps, notes and ledgers. It was important to accurately map the area so the community could plan surrounding land use. The electronic CAD maps will allow the community to properly document important details.
Phase I and Phase II Site Assessment Report Projects
POINTMAP has prepared many Phase I and Phase II maps over the years. We continue to be a company you can trust to help assemble accurate and detailed information in a timely manner. Properly documenting results is key in communicating and meeting regulatory requirements. We help our clients document and present pertinent data to allow a project to flow successfully from beginning to end.
Asbestos Investigation and Abatement Projects
POINTMAP has prepared building and room layout details to assist clients in the investigation and abatement of asbestos materials. POINTMAP can be trusted to prepare maps that clearly represent detailed and accurate information. We have consistently proven to be a trusted and reliable resource in getting details accurately documented for both construction and destruction.
Petroleum Remediation Project
POINTMAP has combined CAD and GIS efforts to produce highly detailed maps for quarterly and annual reports at several petroleum remediation sites and bulk storage facilities. We integrated CAD efforts with database information to create a comprehensive GIS project. Working with information from the database, we are able to assist our clients with managing and displaying data. We are able to provide accurate maps and figures for report documents and planning purposes. Our capabilities with GIS allow us to greatly reduce the time it would normally take to create report figures and present results.
Large Scale Site Restoration Project
POINTMAP worked closely with various entities including military personnel and private consulting firms to successfully digitize utility systems onto an updated survey map for an Ammunition Plant project. The work required detailed review and utilization of many dated blueprints and field notes to correctly map the location of storm sewer, sanitary sewer, steam, gas, and water lines across a site which encompasses an area of over 2,300 acres. Final work product was delivered in an electronic format as a supplement to the existing survey map. The information provided by POINTMAP has assisted in facilitating future development of the site.
