Disasters GeoPlatform

Enterprise GIS at FEMA since 2006

Capabilities

Geospatial is where NLT started — 25 years of GIS delivery, from enterprise ArcGIS platforms at FEMA to imagery science for the World Bank. The six capability areas below are delivered by one interdisciplinary team, and they compound: the address foundations built with nltASRM feed the analytics, and the platforms NLT engineers are the same ones its scientists run in production — including AI/ML geolocation monitoring on nltLocationIntelligence.

GIS Platform Development

Enterprise GIS platform design and deployment including Esri ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Online, and federated GIS architectures.

Remote Sensing and Imagery Analysis

Satellite and aerial imagery processing, classification, change detection, and object identification using ML-based approaches.

Spatial Database Design

Geodatabase schema design, spatial indexing, and PostGIS / Oracle Spatial database architecture for large-scale geospatial datasets.

Address and Location Services

Address validation, geocoding, and spatial reference management using nltASRM platform. USVI and DC OCTO MAR deployments.

Cartographic Production

Map production, atlas creation, and cartographic standards compliance for federal and international development programs.

Geospatial Web Services

OGC-compliant WMS, WFS, WCS services, REST APIs, and tile map services for geospatial data distribution and visualization.

Past Performance

One thread runs through this record: geospatial systems that stay in production — federal platforms operated for years, not delivered and left. The full sector-by-sector record lives on the Federal clients and International clients pages.

FEMA GeoPlatform

Multi-year enterprise geospatial platform support. Esri ArcGIS Enterprise, data management, and GeoPlatform API development.

USACE Civil Works Business Intelligence (CWBI)

Geospatial data integration and visualization for Army Corps of Engineers civil works programs and infrastructure assets.

DC Vector Property Map

Comprehensive parcel and property geospatial database for the DC Office of the Chief Technology Officer.

World Bank

Multi-country geospatial analysis including nighttime lights, land use, and infrastructure mapping across Africa and Asia.

Testimonials from Customers, Partners, and Current and Past Team Members

Geospatial
Perhaps their greatest strength is consistently putting the good of the client ahead of their own — and a rare ability to broker consensus from a broad spectrum of stakeholders.
