GISCA's early project history
GISCA was established in 1994, and since that time has undertaken numerous projects on a broad range of topics for a diverse range of clients from the private sector, all levels of government, semi government and autonomous bodies, and individuals.
Projects undertaken by GISCA up to, and including, 2005 have not been detailed on this website. However, they have been listed below. A perusal of the clients GISCA has worked for, and the nature of the projects, provides an indication of the types of work undertaken by GISCA and demonstrates our capacity to use GIS in a variety of ways for a diverse client group.
Further information relating to these projects can be obtained by contacting GISCA.
