SPECIALIZED SERVICES
At Noto Analytics, we transform complex spatial data into actionable solutions. From advanced mapping to predictive modeling, our cutting-edge GIS services help you uncover patterns, optimize resources, and drive impactful decisions tailored to your unique challenges.
SPATIAL ANALYSIS
Our spatial analysis services transform your raw data into a clear, strategic advantage. By applying advanced statistical methods, we uncover hidden patterns, trends, and relationships within your geospatial information. Whether you need to understand demographic shifts, environmental changes, or market dynamics, our analysis provides the clarity needed for confident decision-making.
We specialize in a range of analytical techniques, including:
Predictive Modelling: Forecast future outcomes, such as urban growth or resource demand, to inform long-term planning.
Hot Spot Analysis: Identify statistically significant clusters to pinpoint areas of high activity or risk, from crime patterns to disease outbreaks.
Least-Cost Path Analysis: Determine the most efficient and cost-effective routes for infrastructure, logistics, or wildlife corridors.
Spatiotemporal Analysis: Understand how your data evolves over both time and space to reveal critical trends.
Example Application: Noto has created computer models to support marine protected area (MPA) analyses, providing valuable insight for conservation and planning initiatives.

MOBILE APPLICATIONS
Equip your field teams with powerful, custom mobile GIS applications designed for efficiency and accuracy. Noto has developed solutions using ESRI Field Maps and Survey123 to support resource management and planning initiatives. Our applications allow your staff to collect, update, and validate geospatial data directly from the field, even in disconnected environments. This real-time capability eliminates data entry errors and accelerates the feedback loop between field and office, improving project coordination and decision-making.
Our mobile solutions are tailored to your specific project needs, offering:
Customizable data collection forms for ESRI applications like Field Maps and Survey123.
Interactive web maps for real-time visualization on any mobile device.
Seamless data synchronization between field crews and office-based teams.
Example Application: Noto has developed mobile apps using ESRI Field Maps and Survey123 for resource management and planning, enabling efficient field data collection and improved collaboration between teams.
Let's discuss how a custom mobile application can streamline your field operations.
MAPPING
We create clear, accurate, and visually compelling maps that make complex information easy to understand. A well-designed map is a powerful communication tool, capable of illustrating everything from wildlife corridors to urban infrastructure with immediate impact. Our cartographic expertise ensures your data is presented in a context that is both relevant and valuable to your audience.
Our mapping services include:
Custom cartography for reports, presentations, and publications.
Interactive web maps that allow users to explore your data.
Bathymetric and 3D mapping to visualize underwater and surface terrain.
Example Application: Noto has applied bathymetric mapping techniques to successfully map underwater areas along the BC coast, supporting marine and coastal research projects.

Surface Analysis
Our surface analysis services provide a detailed understanding of terrain and its characteristics. Using data from sources like LIDAR, SONAR, and satellite imagery, we construct precise digital elevation models (DEMs) to support a wide range of applications, from resource management to engineering and construction. This analysis reveals critical insights about slope, aspect, and elevation that are invisible on a standard map.
Our capabilities include:
3D Visualization: Create realistic 3D models of landscapes for planning and public engagement.
Watershed Delineation: Analyze topography to map drainage patterns and manage water resources.
Vegetation Analysis (NDVI): Use specialized imagery to assess vegetation health and land cover across large areas.
Example Application: Noto has performed surface analysis to support the assessment of areas for new dock space, helping stakeholders understand terrain suitability and optimize site selection.
