CHALLENGE

The primary challenge faced by Yarotek was the sheer volume of potential sites they had to evaluate and the time it took to make informed decisions. Scouring hundreds of locations for land assessment and selection was laborious and often delayed project timelines. They had to rely on external consultants, which incurred significant expenses and added another layer of complexity to the process.


SOLUTION

Transect’s platform offered a comprehensive solution to seamlessly view large data layers, including wetlands, transmission lines, parcel information, slope, and aspect.

This consolidation of critical data eliminated the need to access multiple sources and saved valuable time. Moreover, the platform’s user-friendly interface made it accessible to all team members involved in the decision-making process.

Quotes03


Our initial attraction to Transect was primarily due to their exceptional environmental site assessment capabilities. This allows us to engage in conversations with landowners armed with valuable information on wetlands, historical registry, concerns about endangered species, and buildability and terrain screening. We gain insights on the land’s proximity to transmission lines, ownership details, and its size. Being well-informed in these diverse aspects not only enables us to have detailed discussions with landowners but also distinguishes us from others approaching them.
