Environmental Due Diligence

Historical Research for Environmental Due Diligence

• Historical-use reports assists environmental due diligence

and risk management professionals in assessing prior uses

of a property and its surrounding area in order to identify

situations that may have elevated environmental risk y

• Raising need is to enhance the precision of historical

information as a decision support system for environmentalinformation as a decision support system for environmental

industry needs

G ti l t h l h l t f i f ti t• Geospatial technology helps transform information to a

seamless integrated database fostering historical research

Utilizing ESRI CapabilityHi t i l fi i I t t d I D t• Historical fire insurance map as Integrated Image Data.

• Using transformation algorithms of ArcGIS, individual map sheets for

each city/vintage were geo-referenced

• Digital storage of Map sheets as old as 100

each city/vintage were geo-referenced

• Effective Workflow management

• Least amount of distortion and maintaining the

accuracy levels

• Metadata tagging of images covering details

viz., image number, image type, target pixel X

and Y, etc…
