Plaquemines Port, Harbor, and Terminal District, LA
“ES2 has provided exceptional services in providing and implementing a top-of-the-line GIS system for the Plaquemines Port Harbor and Terminal District.
ES2 has demonstrated exceptional expertise and professionalism in its approach to this project. Their ability to integrate advanced technology, including aerial photography and mapping, with their comprehensive understanding of the Mississippi River and Port-owned property has been truly impressive.
By implementing this GIS system, ES2 has enabled the Plaquemines Port Harbor and Terminal District to optimize its operations and improve its decision-making. The system covers an extensive area of 81 miles of the Mississippi River, including all Port-owned properties, and has proven to be invaluable in enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of the Port's work.
I highly recommend Environmental Science Services for any future GIS-related projects. They have consistently demonstrated their expertise, professionalism, and dedication to excellence."
Harrolynn Sherman, Assistant Port Manager
Port of New Orleans, LA
“ES2 was awarded a GIS technical services contract by Port NOLA after a highly competitive public bid process that returned submissions from firms across the county. Since that time, ES2 has provided the Port with exceptional professional services in building our enterprise GIS.
ES2 has worked alongside staff in multiple departments to identify valuable data, from CAD files to paper maps to department spreadsheets, and convert it for use in our enterprise GIS. Where records were insufficient, they also performed extensive GPS field work to create data. With ES2’s help, the enterprise GIS will change the way staff accesses and interacts with information in almost every department.
After more than a year of working with this team, I cannot recommend them highly enough.”
Maggie Cloos, GIS Manager
Placid Pipeline Company
“For more than a decade, ES2 has provided Placid Pipeline Company LLC (PPC) with various engineering, environmental consulting, GIS services. Beginning in 2006, ES2 developed, implemented, and continues to operate/manage a web-based GIS application to assist PPC in managing very large volumes of data generated from various pipeline integrity management efforts. The web and mobile applications developed by ES2 are an integral tool for PPC operations and maintenance personnel on a daily basis.
In short, the years ES2 has provided PPC professional engineering, environmental consulting, and, in particular, GIS services. They have done so in a professional and responsible manner and at competitive rates. PPC has no hesitation in recommending ES2 as a quality service provider.”
Barry Joffrion, President
City of Denham Springs, LA
“Since 2012, ES2 has provided GIS and mapping services to the City of Denham Springs, creating web and mobile applications that allow City personnel to easily access utility data, including sewer, water, and gas.
In August 2016 the city was inundated with flooding with over 75% of the structures within the City under water. As a part of the recovery process the City created a long-term community recovery plan. This planning process involved City leadership, employees, businesses, community leaders, and residents. ES2 has been a great community partner throughout the process. In dealing with blighted housing, ES2 created an application to help the permit department survey the housing situation after the flood. ES2 developed a web-based GIS for the City that allows for increased efficiency and communication between all departments, including Public Works, Permitting, Police, and Fire.
In Summary, in addition to being a great community partner, ES2 has provided GIS and consulting services to the City of Denham Springs for many years. The City of Denham Springs has no hesitation in recommending ES2 as a quality GIS and consulting service provider.”
Gerard Landry, Mayor
West Baton Rouge Parish OEP, LA
“In 2014, West Baton Rouge Parish Government went out to bid for firms to transition us from a standalone desktop GIS to an enterprise-based system. This system has allowed the Parish to increase efficiency by sharing real-time geographic data where we were unable to do so before. Prior to ES2 being hired, the sharing of data was on an as-needed basis, which was highly insufficient and allowed errors in the data. ES2 came into each department to do a needs assessment to determine the workflow necessary to make each department that deals with GIS data more efficient.
​
Since the implementation of our Enterprise GIS system, we have also been able to create maps that allow the parish to have better situational awareness of hazards, such as severe weather and hurricanes.
We have been very satisfied with the knowledge and experience that ES2 has with its team of professionals. It is because of this, that we would not hesitate to recommend their services to other agencies looking to replicate what we have done.”
Anthony Summers, Asst. Director
Bossier Parish Assessor (BPA), LA
"ES2 was recommended to the Bossier Parish Assessor (BPA) by Esri, the Bossier Parish 911 and West Baton Rouge Parish 911 Departments, to provide the Assessor with an Enterprise Geographic Information System (GIS) and integration with our Computer-Assisted Mass Appraisal System (CAMA).
Prior to ES2 coming on board, BPA’s (CAMA) software for property appraisal and our GIS system did not have a direct integration to provide real-time parcel information, GIS asset details, and an interactive search for parish maps. The ES2 solution integrated our CAMA and GIS databases on the backend, leveraging SQL Server to make accurate decisions using real-time data.
Throughout the entire evolution of this Enterprise GIS, to date, ES2 has demonstrated high levels of technical expertise, responsiveness, and quality service to our entire organization. I highly recommend ES2 for any enterprise GIS projects or related professional GIS services."
