Data Solutions

Project success relies on quality data that are efficiently managed and effectively communicated. Anchor QEA uses an industry-leading commercial application and custom-developed applications during all project phases, from field data gathering to web-based presentation. We deploy the latest techniques and technologies to collect data, including low-detection-level sampling, a variety of GPS-enabled applications, unmanned aerial systems (drones), and remote real-time monitoring systems. We manage data using EarthSoft EQuIS Enterprise, Esri Enterprise ArcGIS,  and custom databases developed with Microsoft SQL Server, and develop rich 2D and 3D visualizations using a variety of custom and commercial applications.

We also use environmental DNA (eDNA) sampling to detect aquatic species, monitor biodiversity, and inform restoration and resource management decisions. Learn how our scientists turn DNA collected from water samples into actionable data in our Environmental DNA Solutions overview.
