We provide the high-quality and cost-effective geospatial solutions thousands rely on each day to make mission-critical decisions.

Established in 2006

ECKERSALL is a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) consulting firm in Chino, CA. We are a Bronze Partner in the Esri Partner Network. Our founder, Scott Eckersall has been working with ESRI and other GIS technology since 1995. We’re fortunate to have a small but growing team of talented GIS professionals with a shared vision to provide outstanding and cost-effective GIS solutions to a growing list of happy clients. We primarily work with municipal, utility, environmental, and commercial clients.

We specialize in Enterprise and Mobile GIS system design, database design, data conversion, software development, implementation, tuning, maintenance, training, and integration with other systems. . The team has a keen understanding of commercial and open-source geospatial technologies. We offer our clients unbiased solutions that best meet their mission-critical needs without promoting any single approach or technology. We routinely connect GIS systems to many other databases and solutions and automate (and document) processes to keep it all running consistently and reliably. We team with our clients to simplify procedures and always strive to provide ample knowledge transfer so they can take it all over when we wrap up.

We’ve traditionally teamed with larger consulting firms but we’re increasingly consulting with clients directly. This provides more direct communication and ultimately a better outcome. We have limited sales, marketing, support, or executive staff, which translates to limited overhead. We’re available remotely or on-site.

Each of us has made a career of designing, implementing and supporting real-world Enterprise GIS. We have a consistent track record of delivering results and building long-term working relationships with our clients. Members of our team introduced in the project team section will be the actual staff carrying out all work, and each team member will be hands-on with every project.

Eckersall has one office located in Chino, CA with a team of five employees. Our normal working hours are Monday through Friday, 7am-5pm (Pacific Time).
