Center for Geospatial Solutions

The Center for Geospatial Solutions is a nonprofit geospatial technology enterprise founded to equip people and planet to meet the pace of change. Data navigators for the common good, CGS brings clarity and insight across today’s fractured and fast-paced information landscape. Our team works with purpose-driven organizations to address some of the most pressing issues facing us today like housing affordability, water scarcity, and ecosystem conservation. We help nonprofits, municipalities, federal agencies, and more take advantage of emerging technologies like machine learning, artificial intelligence, and earth observations to accelerate their work. With decades of cross-sector experience, we are more than technologists. We intrinsically know what our clients are trying to do. We leverage this applied experience to help guide effective solutions and meet our partners where they are, tailoring services to each organization’s needs and technical capabilities. We work across the full data-information chain, wrangling raw data on small and big scales into useful and actionable knowledge. We transform information into impact by developing software, dashboards, and applications that help our clients understand complex situations and respond to emerging realities and opportunities. The Center for Geospatial Solutions operates as part of the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy.
