Location Data & Readiness

GIS & Rural Addressing

Practical GIS and addressing support that helps agencies improve location data, road centerlines, boundaries, validation, field information, and mapping resources for public safety operations and NG9-1-1 readiness.

Accurate Location Information

Build a clearer geographic foundation for public safety.

Public safety depends on knowing where an incident is located, which road provides access, what jurisdiction is responsible, and how location information moves across agency systems. In rural and Tribal service areas, long distances, informal roads, dispersed structures, shared place names, changing development, and incomplete data can make that work especially complex.

MTM Solutions helps agencies improve and validate the geographic information supporting emergency communications, addressing, planning, and NG9-1-1 readiness. Services can address individual datasets or connect correction, reconciliation, field verification, quality review, map production, and visualization into a coordinated GIS effort.

Core Capabilities

Focused support shaped around operational reality.

01

Address Data Correction

Review and correction of address points, location information, attributes, formatting, duplicates, inconsistencies, and other data conditions affecting dependable use.

02

Topology Repair & Layer Alignment

Identification and correction of spatial errors, gaps, overlaps, connectivity issues, misaligned layers, parcel conditions, and related geometry problems.

03

Road Centerline Creation & Cleanup

Creation, realignment, cleanup, segmentation, connectivity review, and attribute correction for road centerline data supporting addressing and public safety workflows.

04

PSAP Boundary Development

Creation or refinement of PSAP and related service boundaries using available agency information, operational responsibilities, adjacent jurisdictions, and authoritative geographic data.

05

MSAG-to-GIS Reconciliation

Comparison and reconciliation of Master Street Address Guide information with GIS street names, address ranges, communities, jurisdictions, and related location data.

06

NG9-1-1 Data Validation & QA/QC

Structured validation, quality review, issue documentation, correction support, attribute standardization, and schema-focused preparation for agencies advancing NG9-1-1 readiness.

07

Imagery, Digitizing & Field Verification

Use of imagery, orthophoto interpretation, field information, and available source materials to digitize or verify structures, roads, driveways, address points, and geographic features.

08

Web Maps & Visualization

Map production, interactive web maps, story maps, dashboards, custom operational maps, and small-scale ArcGIS Online applications for planning and information sharing.

GIS Outputs

Corrected data and useful maps built for agency needs.

Each engagement is scoped around the available data, service area, operational use, authoritative sources, quality conditions, and the agency's current readiness priorities.

  • Address-point correction and cleanup
  • Road-centerline creation, realignment, and attribution
  • Topology repair and layer-alignment findings
  • PSAP and service-boundary development
  • MSAG-to-GIS reconciliation results
  • NG9-1-1 GIS validation and QA/QC documentation
  • Digitized structures, roads, driveways, or parcels
  • Custom maps, dashboards, and web visualizations

From Data to Decisions

Connect field reality with the location information agencies use.

GIS readiness is not only a technical data exercise. Local road knowledge, community names, service boundaries, access routes, field conditions, dispatch practices, and maintenance ownership all influence whether geographic information remains useful over time.

Locate

Improve the address points, roads, access information, and boundaries used to describe place.

Validate

Compare data, sources, imagery, field knowledge, and defined quality expectations.

Visualize

Turn geographic information into maps and tools that support planning and operations.

GIS Approach

Assess the data, correct the geography, and validate the result.

MTM combines data review with agency knowledge, imagery, field information, reconciliation, and documented QA/QC to create a clearer and more maintainable geographic foundation.

01

Define the geographic and operational need

MTM works with agency stakeholders to understand the service area, addressing environment, authoritative sources, current workflows, public safety uses, known concerns, and desired GIS outcomes.

02

Inventory and assess the data

Available address points, road centerlines, boundaries, parcels, imagery, MSAG information, field records, maps, attributes, schemas, and related reference material are reviewed within scope.

03

Correct, align, and build

Data issues are addressed through correction, digitizing, topology repair, layer alignment, attribute standardization, feature creation, boundary refinement, or other agreed GIS work.

04

Validate and reconcile

Updated information is reviewed through defined QA/QC checks, cross-layer comparisons, MSAG reconciliation, imagery or source verification, issue tracking, and stakeholder confirmation.

05

Deliver and support continued use

Final datasets, findings, maps, visualizations, and supporting documentation are organized for agency use, with identified maintenance considerations and unresolved items clearly communicated.
