GIS Migration & Upgrade
It can be difficult for organisations to continually upgrade their GIS solutions due to tight integration and version dependency, resulting in unsupported legacy systems that require GIS migration to make use of new technology. There may also be a more strategic decision involved that results in a move from one application to another, or from closed to open source.
GIS4BUSINESS has worked on several large and small-scale GIS migration projects and has undertaken many software upgrades on behalf of our customers. We can help to plan upgrade activities, undertake data migration and ensure your new solution is implemented as smoothly as possible.
We are also familiar with need for some businesses to provide ongoing support for legacy applications, whilst minimising change to legacy code and can offer innovative solutions to these problems.
