At Arterials, we offer expert Geographic Information Systems (GIS) services tailored to the unique needs of transportation planning, infrastructure development, and urban analysis. From high-quality maps to powerful spatial analysis, our GIS capabilities empower planners, engineers, and decision-makers with accurate, actionable insights.
Custom Mapping & Visualization
We design purpose-built maps that support decision-making and communication. Whether it’s for a development application, public consultation, or engineering report, our maps are clear, informative, and visually engaging.
- Road networks, public transit access, and non-motorized transportation layers
- Land use overlays, zoning context, and development boundaries
- Demographics: population, employment, housing types
- Travel behavior and mode share patterns
- Base mapping and professional cartographic design
We also create interactive dashboards and story maps to communicate complex data in a user-friendly, online format.
Spatial Analysis & Data Integration
Our team integrates transportation data with land use, census, environmental, and infrastructure layers to produce insights that go beyond the spreadsheet.
- Accessibility, travel sheds, and catchment areas
- Network analysis and proximity to key destinations
- Integration with Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZ) and modeling inputs
- Scenario mapping for transportation master plans and EA studies
- Growth projections and spatial trend analysis
GIS Support for Planning Studies
We embed GIS into the core of your planning studies — not just as visuals, but as tools for better policy and infrastructure decisions.
- Support for TMPs, Secondary Plans, and Traffic Impact Studies (TIS)
- Infrastructure constraints, environmental overlays, and opportunity mapping
- Growth analysis, land use allocation, and phasing plans
- Forecast visualization and model integration
Web Mapping & Dashboards
Arterials develops mobile-friendly, browser-based GIS dashboards and interactive maps that support:
- Stakeholder engagement and public consultation
- Real-time data filtering and analysis
- Hosted GIS solutions for organizations without in-house systems
These platforms allow your team or the public to explore data, scenarios, and planning options directly in the browser.
Why GIS Matters in Transportation
Every transportation decision is spatial — from where a new road should go, to how people access transit, to what infrastructure needs funding. GIS brings clarity, context, and evidence to these decisions.
Whether you’re a government agency, engineering firm, or developer, our GIS services help you plan smarter and communicate more effectively.
