“Open source content and tools are at the core of automating the complex process of the New York City Environmental Quailty (CEQR) review application.

A couple of seasoned GIS folks to step in and combine professional experience with geospatial tools and programming skills to offer a cost effective and streamlined process to work through the CEQR application.”
