Our Services

FEASIBILITY & PLANNING STUDIES

  • Evaluate the potential of cycling routes, trails, and outdoor corridors.

    • Assess accessibility, safety, amenities, and local business integration.

    • Identify gaps and opportunities using on-the-ground scouting and geospatial data.

    • Deliver actionable reports and visual summaries to support funding and development applications.

LOCATION LANDING PAGES & MAPPING SOLUTIONS

  • Build interactive, data-driven landing pages for your community.

    Showcase local trails, cycling routes, attractions, and services.

    Integrate real-time open data, from municipal GIS to tourism assets.

    Encourage discovery while improving search visibility and visitor engagement.

    Example: A landing page for your municipality that maps cycling routes, points of interest, public amenities, and local businesses — built on our location intelligence framework.

OPEN DATA INTEGRATION

  • • Connect municipal open data (trails, amenities, permits, land use, etc.) with our mapping tools.

    • Normalize and visualize data using our Neighbourly API for geospatial boundaries.

    • Combine infrastructure data with storytelling and media for a complete destination experience.

    • Create public-facing maps that are accurate, user-friendly, and easy to maintain.

WE DRIVE Economic & Community Impact

Outdoor infrastructure isn’t just about recreation—it’s an investment in community and economic growth. By creating connected cycling routes, trails, and outdoor spaces, municipalities can attract visitors, support local businesses, and enhance residents’ quality of life. Our reports and services highlight measurable outcomes such as visitation numbers, engagement levels, and potential return on investment, helping municipalities demonstrate real impact. These insights also support funding applications for trail development, signage, and recreation projects while reinforcing local pride and a stronger sense of place through accessible, well-designed outdoor spaces.
