Our innovative GIS solutions recognised for special achievement

GHD was recently recognised by Esri with the Special Achievement in GIS (SAG) Award at this year's Esri User Conference in San Diego, California. The SAG Award is given to outstanding users globally, specifically highlighting organisations that innovate and trailblaze within the GIS community.

This award is a testament to the collaboration between teams across our enterprise, who continue to develop and integrate spatial capabilities into the projects we deliver. Whether leveraging spatial information and platforms for design, field data collection and reporting, analysis, and more, we continue to provide our clients with innovative GIS solutions and adapt to their evolving needs.

The Esri User Conference connects like-minded individuals to learn, reconnect, and discover more about GIS. From siting renewable projects, deploying solutions in water and utility networks, using real-time analytics, to elevating transportation planning, thousands of global users converged in San Diego to share how they leverage their capabilities to solve unique problems. Twenty GHD employees from the United States, New Zealand, Australia, and the United Kingdom attended the event.

Across five days, seven GHD projects were highlighted in the map gallery, illustrating our use of Esri platforms and innovative technologies in delivering best-in-class outcomes. Our posters discussed geospatial intelligence and the improvement of portfolio management, advanced analytics in the regulatory environment, and leveraging Esri dashboards and mapping to communicate information to stakeholders, amongst others.

As part of an award ceremony during the conference, Jack Dangermond, President and Founder of Esri, announced the SAG Awards to organizations setting new precedents in GIS. It was here that GHD received the award – one of six Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) recipients.

We have worked with Esri as a trusted partner and technology vendor for our solutions for over 20 years. With GHD becoming an Esri silver partner, we have had an incredible opportunity to build and scale our GIS enterprise environment globally and enable tailored GIS solutions for our clients and communities.
