GIS & Location-Based Software · Michigan & beyond

Turn geographic data into working tools.

A map becomes more valuable when it helps someone answer a question or complete a task. BTS develops web mapping, spatial data systems, and location-aware applications that connect geography to your operational workflow.

Where we can help

Start with the problem.

  • 01

    Teams need to explore land, assets, or locations through a web application.

  • 02

    Spatial information needs to connect with records in another system.

  • 03

    Field data collection needs a geographic context.

  • 04

    Users need focused location tools rather than a general-purpose map.

What BTS builds

The pieces of a useful solution.

Interactive web mapping

Maps with relevant layers, filters, and interfaces designed around the user's questions.

Spatial data systems

Geospatial databases, data preparation, and APIs that support the application.

Location workflows

Field collection, asset information, and spatial features integrated into business or mobile software.

From the BTS portfolio

DataPoint GIS

DataPoint GIS is represented in the BTS portfolio with land intelligence, spatial data engineering, and web mapping. It shows the connection between geographic information and purpose-built software interfaces.

Working together

Direct access to your software engineer.

We review the questions users need to answer, the geographic datasets available, their licensing and update frequency, and the scale of the application. The map and data architecture follow those requirements.

Work directly with Ryan Bertram from discovery through deployment. BTS is based in Michigan, offers on-site discovery throughout the state, and collaborates remotely with organizations across the U.S. Travel for larger projects can be discussed during scoping.

Common questions

Before we start.

Can GIS connect to an existing application?

Yes. BTS can scope APIs, spatial data models, and mapping interfaces that connect geographic information to existing business records.

Can you work with our data?

We begin by reviewing the formats, quality, coordinate systems, access rights, and update process for your datasets before choosing an implementation.

Let's talk

What would make your work easier?

Bring the problem, the current process, and the outcome you want. We can work out the technical details together.
