Matt Pearce, its principal consultant, founded MaPS, Inc. Matt graduated from the University of Minnesota with a Bachelor of Science in Geography and has seen GIS evolve from its infant start to today’s multi-faceted branches. Matt has been fortunate to work for Elert & Associates of Stillwater, MN – a public safety consulting firm with projects all over the Midwest – and GeoResearch of Billings, MT – a GPS/GIS consulting firm with a nationwide reach. GeoResearch developed one of the first civilian solutions to decode the Dept. of Defense GPS satellite signal and develop a mapping software, GeoLink, which offered efficient field mapping and accurate data collection. Good data equaled good projects – and Matt’s list of long-term clients keeps growing. As a project manager, Matt works closely with private agencies and local government at every level to identify mapping and data needs and use GPS/GIS technology to successfully develop beneficial solutions.
