In today’s competition for tomorrow’s workforce, residents, and consumers, one constant holds true — A community must be proactive in developing its own image or it will eventually acquire one.

Communities are like merchandise, in that their success largely depends upon branding, reputation, and developing and maintaining an identity.  Attaining market share of each variable requires tedious planning and resources.

Unlike some communities that have been graced with great geography and an appreciation for maintaining amenities that truly define place making, most communities have seemed to have lost touch with what once made them great and meaningful.

In helping our communities do “small things in a great way,” we’ve developed cost-effective methods in helping to revive their identity through innovative branding, wayfinding, community benchmarks, gateways, lighting, and other design elements.

Simply put, we’ll help to refine your communities most precious lost treasure — itself.

A well-developed geographic information system (GIS) is worth a million words. It’s worth a lot especially when a lack of communication has been any community’s greatest antagonist. GIS is simply a technology that allows for information and data to become visual. Today, a growing world of data is available to citizens. And because often this data is free, preparing a GIS can be inexpensive depending upon your direct needs. The results, however, are priceless.

For rural communities and townships heavily reliant upon agriculture, using a GIS to highlight development patterns and highlight prime farmland has done wonders. Not only can lot splits be visualized, but when overlaid with soils, the GIS can help public officials ascertain which areas are better to develop or preserve. Projects handled by Reveille can range anywhere from the “scratch” development of a GIS for any size political subdivision, to the revitalization and manipulation of your existing GIS and data.
