Nawi Maps provides cartographic, GIS, and database services to a diverse clientele since 1996. Originally the company was named Norris Maps and provided strictly publication quality maps for reporting and authoring.
The operation has grown to provide GIS services, specialized web map services, interface design for stand alone GIS applications, data management consulting and book design; all the while still maintaining services to provide publication quality maps. We have the ability to work on most platforms (Macintosh, Windows, Linux) and can use data in almost any format (try us).
