affinis gis

Everything you need, and nothing you don’t. A GIS database provides a complete picture of your project site. You select the range of datapoints that should be incorporated. For some, that might mean identifying every manhole, inlet, and pipe and then, cataloguing the sizes, materials, and the conditions of each. No matter what is included, all our databases can feature links to photos of every structure.

Affinis brings an experienced lens to each GIS database. Our licensed surveyors use their 30 years of experience to gather data in the field. Their insight and state-of-the-art equipment allow them to capture the information needed. Then, they collaborate directly with our GIS team to generate a database that meets our clients’ goals. Having both teams in house means that nothing is lost in translation.

Working with GIS allows our design team to work through alternatives quickly at a concept level.

Water Modeling Gets Interactive with GIS

At Affinis, we’ve been delivering stormwater models in a new way. Using GIS, our team is mapping locations of inlets and connecting pipes to see how they work together. To learn more about how it works, we interviewed John Spell, a project engineer and Brandon Gann, a GIS specialist, on the topic.

Fort Riley Main Post Stormwater Study Ranks System Upgrades for Next 30 Years

fort riley stormwater study

Fort Riley’s Main Post was constructed in the early 1900’s. Given the age of the facilities, there were few maps, as-builts, or internal historical knowledge about the stormwater system. Fort Riley’s Directorate of Public Works (DPW) was addressing system problems, but wanted a comprehensive improvement plan that considered all of the Main Post’s needs and helped them plan future improvements.
