Samples of Our Work

We create tools our clients can use to analyze and communicate complex data and ideas.

Explore our gallery below to see examples of data visualization, maps, tools and infographics we have created that might help you collect data or share vital information with your audience.


MAPS

With more than 20 years of combined experience in geospatial technology, Big Water staff are passionate about the power of maps to enhance data visualization and reveal unexpected relationships within the data that may influence program management.

Big Water can provide you with static or interactive maps—to demonstrate impact, illustrate reach or demarcate resources and service areas. These maps could be printed or embedded into a website for promotional purposes or inserted into reports to augment analysis.
