Overview

GIS Innovations Ltd. was incorporated in July of 1993 with a mission statement: to help customers succeed with GIS technology. GIS is an acronym for Geographic Information Systems.  The principal, Bob Janowicz, has been working in GIS since 1985.  In fact, most of our team has been involved with GIS related technologies since before 1990.
