Frequently Asked Questions regarding GIS Services:

Q: Do you accept credit or debit cards?

A: No, we are unable to accept credit/debit card payments.

 

Q: Do you accept PayPal or other electronic funds transfers?

A: No, we are unable to accept any such payment methods.

 

Q: Can you provide the service up front, then bill for it later?

A: No, we do not operate on an 'accounts receivable' basis. Payment is due prior to work performed. We can provide an invoice upon request if your accounting process requires one in order to generate a check.

 

Q: What is the turn-around time for a service request?

A: Once payment is received, service requests are processed as soon as is possible - typically that day, or within a few days, depending on staffing levels and current workload.

 

Q: How are service requests delivered?

A: Depends on the nature of the request. Paper products are typically delivered via postal mail.

 

Q: Can I request some other method of delivery?

A: Yes, but contact us in advance to make sure it's feasible. You may pick up the material in person. You may have electronic material emailed to you, provided that the requested material is small enough. We do not have an FTP site that you can "pull" from - however if you have an FTP site we can "push" to, then we can accommodate that method.

 

Q: What is the turn-around time for a custom map/special project?

A: It will vary depending on the nature of your map/project request, as well as staffing levels and other current workloads.  If turn-around time is a concern, be sure to discuss it with staff during the specification of your project and we will do our best to provide an estimate.

 

Q: Can you laminate, or mount on foam core or hardboard, or frame a printed map for me?

A: No. Contact a print shop and/or framing shop for those types of services.

 

Q: I need a large quantity of one of your poster-sized maps printed, can you do it?

A: Yes, though it will be more cost effective for you to take a digital version (PDF) of that map to a print shop for mass duplication. Our equipment is not designed for bulk jobs, and the pricing reflects that - there is no quantity discount. Print shops typically have a fixed 'setup' fee, but per unit cost drops rapidly as quantities increase. Thus, a single copy will likely be less expensive if we print it, but once you exceed a couple copies then a print shop will likely be a better choice.
