NeST GIS is a products and services entity under NeST Information Technologies, offering advanced geospatial solutions with a focus on government, cadastral, utilities, transportation and facilities management. One of the NeST’s key differentiators in the industry is that it is a software development company that has added GIS as a horizontal technology focus area, rather than a ‘mapping’ company attempting software development in GIS. We help to GIS‐enable the business processes of our clients. NeST GIS has a strong focus in offering services built upon Esri technology. Besides providing data development and application development services, we have specialized in technology migration and GIS consulting services.

NeST GIS is ISO 27001, ISO 9001:2000, ISO 9001:2015, ISO 27001:2005 and CMMI Level 5 certified with mature production processes ensuring timely, cost‐effective, and quality deliverables. The division also successfully completed the Capability Maturity Model Integration with CMMI DEV v2.0 Maturity Level 5 certificate.

NeST GIS has been working with top global agencies over the past 16 plus years, which include government and federal departments, large utility companies and airliners across USA, Mexico, France, ME (Qatar, UAE, Oman, KSA, Kuwait and Lebanon), Asia Pacific (Singapore, Japan and Australia) and Nigeria
