Mapping & GIS

Creating Maps To Represent Spatial Data

At the heart of our GIS program at Rutland Regional Planning Commission is Cartography, the practice of creating maps to represent spatial data. Our skilled team produces a variety of specialized maps, each serving a distinct purpose in regional planning.

Land Use Maps

These maps depict how land in our region is currently used, such as residential, commercial, agricultural, or industrial areas, helping us to monitor and plan future land use changes effectively.

Zoning Maps

We create detailed zoning maps that illustrate different zoning regulations across the region, guiding development in a way that aligns with our region's goals.

Transportation Maps

Our maps also showcase transportation networks, including roads, public transit routes, and pedestrian paths. These maps are essential for improving our region's transportation and connectivity.

Demographic Maps

Using demographic data, we create maps that show population distribution, density, and other social characteristics. These are crucial for public service planning and economic development.

Environmental Maps

We produce maps highlighting environmental factors, like watersheds, floodplains, and green spaces. These are critical for environmental planning and conservation efforts.

Story Maps

Beyond static maps, we create interactive story maps that combine GIS data with narrative text, images, and multimedia content. This provides an engaging way to communicate complex data and insights.
