Mission

Nowadays, the world is changing dynamically. Technological progress, climate change, environmental degradation all affect the reality that surrounds us. It forces us to take actions on scales never known before.

Pollution generated by the energy, industrial and transport sectors is driving the need to restructure economies by switching to renewable energy sources, modernizing industrial installations and reorganizing transport towards low-carbon measures.

Climate change has far-reaching environmental consequences. Monitoring of ecosystems is necessary to carry out remedial and supportive activities. It should help in deciding how to effectively protect them, so that they will serve the next generations.

Natural resources exploited economically as a result of agricultural activities and forest management should be optimally exploited, with the lowest possible impact on the natural environment. The key is to reduce chemical pesticides and the amount of fertilizers used. This can be achieved by implementing solutions based on targeted information and spatial analysis.

The overriding goal of GISPRO is to support processes and activities aimed at sustainable, neutral development. Their indispensable element is reliable and complete geospatial information about the surrounding environment. GISPRO’s main goal is to provide its clients with complete solutions, analyzes and tools supporting their functioning in an incredibly fast-changing world.

Thanks to an extensive team of engineers with various specializations, we can meet them.

Our main goal is the development of the services we provide, in particular in such segments as: public administration, infrastructure, environment, agriculture and forest management. Our priority is to offer complete services and products that meet the expectations of our Clients.

History

GISPRO was founded in 2006 in Szczecin. We started our commercial activity with a team of five, who was one of the few in Poland responsible for the development of topographic databases for the digitization of cartographic studies. We participated in all stages of development and expansion of this project, implementing tasks from the TBD data standard to the currently operating BDOT10k.

In 2007 we extended the scope of our services to support infrastructure investments, contributing to the creation of a network of expressways and motorways in Poland. The first project of this type was the geodetic service of the construction of the S3 expressway Szczecin Klucz – Pyrzyce. Then we participated in the construction of, among others, expressways and motorways A1, S5 and S6. Since 2012, we have expanded our offer to include railway infrastructure development services. Until now, we have participated in the construction or modernization of many parts of the E59 railway line from Warsaw to Szczecin, or the construction of a railway approach to the Szczecin-Świnoujście Seaport. In 2018, we entered the hydrotechnical investments sector, servicing, among others, construction of a quay at the Port of Szczecin and construction of a container terminal at the Fińskie Quay in Szczecin.

A milestone in the development of GISPRO was the implementation of two investment projects. They were the result of the adopted strategy basing the company’s development on the implementation of innovative spatial data acquisition systems. These activities took place in 2008-2009. The first project involved the construction and implementation of an innovative mobile mapping system (MMS) on a European scale. It was built by integrating three laser scanners, an inertial system, and a GPS system with the car. It enabled the registration of over a million points per second in motion. Thanks to the implementation of this technology, we were able to participate in many ambitious projects. One of the first was mapping the national road No. 1 between Łódź and Częstochowa. It is worth emphasizing that our system made it possible to perform all measurements without having to turn off the traffic of vehicles. At that time, one of the key products was the development of a numerical asphalt model with a few centimeters resolution and sub-centimeter height accuracy.

The second project concerned the implementation of an innovative photogrammetric aviation platform. The constructed system is based on a twin-engine airplane adapted to the installation of a large-format photogrammetric camera, an aerial topographic scanner and thermal camera. The implementation of the platform also included the formation of a team responsible for the full range of aerial and photogrammetric works and the launch of a number of security procedures. The effort we made allowed us to significantly increase the services offered. Thanks to these activities, we have become one of the leaders of the photogrammetric market in Poland. We confirm this by participating in projects important for the development of our country, i.e. the development of orthophotos for the needs of LPIS, delivery of high-altitude studies for the construction of the ISOK flood prevention system.

During this period, we expanded our activities to foreign markets. The developed and implemented technologies allowed our engineers to effectively compete with Western companies. Since then, we have successfully completed many orders on foreign markets, including German, Swedish, Czech, Lithuanian, Swiss and even Portuguese.

The next breakthrough period in our activity was the year 2017. Our company, cooperating with scientific units, became involved in research and development projects. The first project was to develop a methodology for inventory of wood resources using high-resolution aerial remote sensing. On the basis of the obtained results, we started research and development works on a prototype technology of a multisensory aeronautical diagnostic station, enabling a large-scale inventory and parameterization of vegetation. The project ended with full success in 2020. Its effects significantly increased the possibilities of our services in the field of photogrammetry, remote sensing and environmental analysis.

Since 2020, we have been carrying out research and development work on the development of a multimodal mapping system for the needs of inland and sea waterways and areas of exploitation. The technology under development is to integrate measurement sensors operating in various environments: aviation, land and underwater, in order to achieve synergy of obtained data. All above-water and underwater elements will be measured simultaneously, and the obtained data will be processed in semi-automatic and automatic processes based on e.g. artificial intelligence.

The increase in the share of research and development projects in the activities of our company prompted us in 2021 to establish the special purpose company GISPRO Technologies Sp. z o.o. Its activities include scientific research and development in the field of natural and technical sciences. Statutory tasks are carried out in close cooperation with Polish and foreign research units.

From the beginning of the establishment of GISPRO, we have been continuously working on the development of our company. We invest in state-of-the-art solutions and develop our own innovative technologies. We make sure that our services meet the highest standards. Currently, we operate in many fields related to broadly understood geoinformation. We provide services in the field of surveying, geomatics, photogrammetry and aerial and ground remote sensing, infrastructure investment services and IT. Our team consists of over 140 employees, mostly expert engineers with unique knowledge and skills.

Our efforts are focused on the further development of our company. We trust that the briefly mentioned story is only a prelude to our further actions, which we will be able to share soon.
