GIS Software for Land Evaluation
We empower clients with the most comprehensive data, GIS software tools, and land insights. Land evaluation is the first stage of a land project, and Latapult, a land intelligence platform, carries that work into acquisition and development.
The challenge
Information gaps hinder business success.
Land data has been historically unorganized and spread out across disparate sources, forcing analysts and surveyors to spend significant time on manual research, managing multiple logins, and occasionally traveling to government offices in person to access crucial information.
When land must meet specific, detailed criteria, incomplete data can take a serious toll on business success.
The solution
Comprehensive Land Surveying GIS Software
Latapult’s premier GIS software for land surveying provides detailed data paired with dynamic mapping tools for enhanced analysis to more accurately determine site value, project suitability, and land sustainability. Plus, Latapult custom users can also import their own data into the platform with Latapult Custom.

What Our Clients Say About Us
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does land due diligence include?
Land due diligence confirms a property can support the planned use before it is purchased. It usually covers ownership and title, boundaries and acreage, access, utilities, flood zones and wetlands, soils and slope, environmental history, and market data. Latapult covers the map-based research, so teams can focus surveys and paid studies on the strongest sites.
-
How do you identify environmental constraints on a site?
Layer wetlands, flood zones, soils, slope, and protected areas over the parcel boundary and note where they overlap usable land. Latapult shows these layers together for any parcel, so analysts can flag constraints in minutes instead of pulling each source separately.
-
How do you calculate buildable area?
Start with the parcel boundary and remove land that cannot be built on, such as wetlands, floodways, steep slopes, and required setbacks. Latapult’s Buildable Area Tool does this on the map and reports usable acreage. Final buildability should be confirmed with a survey and the local jurisdiction.
-
How do analysts compare several sites consistently?
Apply the same criteria and data to every site, then record results in one place. In Latapult, analysts run the same searches and layers on each parcel, save sites as Pins with notes, and group them in Shared Bookmarks for review. Teams screening many locations at once use Latapult’s site selection software.
-
Can I add my own data to a land evaluation?
Yes. Analysts can import their own data and web services and view them with Latapult’s 250+ GIS datasets. Once a site passes evaluation, the same research stays in Latapult through land acquisition and land development.
