Flexible options to meet your business needs
Companies have differing requirements when it comes to accessing geospatial data, so we offer a range of packages to suit your business need. Emapsite's services are available in two distinct forms - "Pre-licensed" and "Transactional"
The "Pre-licensed" services are suitable for customers who already possess a valid license for a specific dataset. With these services, Emapsite's data professionals host, manage, and maintain the geospatial database and datasets on behalf of the customer. The customer can leverage Emapsite's expertise and infrastructure while using their own licensed dataset.
"Transactional" services include the cost of dataset licensing within the overall tariff. This means that customers who opt for these services don't need to acquire separate licences for the datasets they use. Emapsite takes care of the dataset licensing as part of the service, allowing seamless access to the geospatial data you need.
Whichever option you choose, Emapsite geospatial services comply with OGC standards, ensuring interoperability and compatibility with other systems and applications, leaving you to focus on your business goals while relying on the expertise and support of Emapsite's data professionals.

Query API Services
Emapsite’s Query APIs provide a seamless method for your software application to access and retrieve results from a specific dataset or layer, containing a pre-defined set of attributes.
Designed to be integrated into software applications by your developers, our Query APIs allow you to tap into a vast information store without needing to maintain the underlying data, reducing your IT overheads. What's more, because our geospatial experts keep the information up to date, you know your teams are working with the best data to get better results, faster.
Our flexible services cover both service access and licensing of the dataset(s), also referred to as 'layers', under the terms of a transactional license. We offer a tariff structure that includes an 'allowance' for using the service, allowing a maximum number of calls per day for a contracted period of one year.
