The GIS personnel provide quality geospatial services to all divisions within GCW. They facilitate the efficient and effective management of the human, cultural, financial, and natural resources of Southern Nevada, and its local communities. This practice has allowed GCW to analyze the effects of certain designs and land uses on various projects in an efficient and cost effective manner to effectively maximize the use of facilities and properties by identifying potentially significant impacts and assessing where additional analyses are required. GCW recognizes the importance of GIS applications pertaining to appraisal mapping, facilities management, infrastructure management, engineering, and planning functions.
