At Line 45, we help clients use technology to solve environmental and natural resource problems by collecting, organizing, and visualizing data. We especially love spatial data and bringing the power of geospatial technologies like GIS (Geographic Information System) to problem solving. For some organizations, we help streamline their systems for efficient data collection and storage. For others, we turn data into insight. With companies that don’t have the data they need we can provide data collection and data mining services. In every engagement, we make our client's success our number one priority.

Our services include:

- Application Development: We build web and mobile applications as well as interactive web maps that meet your data collection, visualization and analysis needs.

- GIS Consulting & Services: Geographic Information Systems (GIS) support for organizations big and small. We provide data collection, process automation, map making, analysis, and more.

Our team comes from a wide-range of backgrounds - computer science, geology, history, GIS, non-profits, government, marketing, writing and more - but we’re brought together by a natural curiosity to learn, a knack for creative problem-solving, and a passion-driven work ethic. Having fun and constantly working to be better runs deep in our veins and we take it everywhere with us whether at work, at home or at play.

We help small businesses and organizations reap the benefits of technology, so they can not only adapt but thrive in a fast-changing world.

With a focus on geographic information systems (GIS) and web app development, we work with clients who do real things in the real world - conservation organizations, regulatory agencies, water utilities, and companies in the oil and gas, forestry, and energy sectors.

Simplicity 

We value communication – in both words and visual design – that boils complicated issues, problems, and insights down to what really matters.

Reciprocity 

We believe everyone would be better off if people focused more on creating value in their business relationships rather than maximizing personal gain.

Impact 

Nothing motivates us more than seeing our clients and customers make tangible, measurable progress toward their goals.

Independence 

We started our own company because we want to be in control of the work we do. We help our clients and customers build their own internal capacity so they can feel more confident and independent too.
