Clearwater, FL (April 10, 2003): Avineon, Inc., the leading provider of GIS services, today announces the expansion of its photointerpretation and environmental mapping services. Using photogrammetric technology, various imagery sources including digital orthophotography, and field data collection, Avineon now offers an extensive array of services to clients interested in the acquisition of aerial imagery and environmental GIS data.

Avineon's biologists, geographers, and other natural scientists perform wetland mapping, benthic habitat mapping, species level vegetation mapping (aquatic and forestry), soil mapping, field reconnaissance, GPS data collection, environmental resource inventories, and trend analysis. They are also highly experienced in combining multiple techniques to develop comprehensive land use/land cover maps that facilitate environmental resource management on a regional scale. Avineon adapts a variety of mapping techniques and products to the specific needs of individual clients, bringing the best combination of photogrammetric and image processing tools to each environmental mapping project.

Environmental services complement Avineon's full suite of geospatial services, which also include data conversion, data migration, photogrammetry, application development, and GIS consulting. These services reflect the core competencies of Avineon's Baymont Division, which was formed following Avineon's 2002 acquisition of AGRA Baymont, Inc. The Baymont Division brings over twenty-seven years of experience in environmental mapping services to Avineon.

Keith Patterson, Avineon's Director of Photogrammetry, Mapping and GIS, said, "Our photointerpretation and GIS staff are very experienced. Many of them participated in the National Wetlands Inventory program and all are skilled in producing the highly detailed environmental map data necessary to effectively manage and monitor natural resources".
