GIS Software/Support & Web Deployed Collaboration Mapping

OGInfo.com's Team of professional GIS Technicians and Software Engineers have developed products that are leading the industry in power, depth and flexibility.

Our GIS Mapping Software will change the way your company views and uses maps. OGI PowerMap is secure and will empower companies to access and distribute a variety of prospect maps throughout an entire enterprise giving the right people the right information, at the right time.  This shared, internal map facilitates enhanced collaboration between the in-house and field landmen giving the largest companies the nimbleness needed to compete effectively in today’s fast-paced market. This application is customized to your area and is available online so managers working in different geographical areas can all look at the same map at the same time.  

We know that data security is paramount to your organization's success; therefore, deployment of this map is controlled in-house. OGI has built-in, customizable, multi-tiered user administration and monitoring.  Our clients have the ability to turn on, turn off, and/or monitor access from their own desktops.  IP log assists in keeping data confidential.  Clients can have multiple prospects loaded with settings that allow access to all in-house landmen but limits access to one prospect for a particular brokerage firm or individual landman.

OGI’s free desktop GIS software program provides our users with low cost of ownership and the ability to start mapping immediately using our data.  OGI gathers GIS data from multiple sources then reformats, joins and messages the data so our users experience a consistent look and feel. Our GIS mapping software can also be integrated with our lease management software (LAVA) as a tool for easy lease, memo, LPR, draft, rider and exhibit creation along with acreage and draft totals.  This module works with the same tiered user administration hierarchy so an administrator or crew-chief can upload company approved leases, memos, LPRs, riders and exhibits.  Managers can easily tract prospect progress, gross/net acres acquired, gross/net acres committed or view the results of an ongoing lease check on a minute by minute basis.  LAVA provides up to the minute collaboration between field and in-house managers and cuts down on the lifecycle of critical decision making.

Survey, Parcel, Well, Pipeline and Competitive Lease Layers

Digital images available for most Texas Counties

OGInfo.com has recently created the parcel/oil gas lease map sets for Texas RRC Districts 1, 2 & 4 (covering all of South Texas and the Valley) along with 60 other Texas counties. Currently, nearly 100 parcel/oil gas lease map sets are available to users. These are available in tiff, hard copy, or vectorized GIS data formats. We are adding new counties to our digital library each day, so check back often!

OGI provides true GIS data that can be loaded into any GIS software package or can be loaded on our own (OGInfoMap) to view, edit, add tracts and their associated attributes. All of our data is "pre-processed" so there's no guessing about coordinate systems or projections. All files delivered to the client are ready for use and are all in the coordinate system of your choice. OGI has lowered the cost of ownership of both the data and software making entry into this field an attainable goal, whether on the individual level or the organizational level. When reviewing our available data please keep in mind that many counties have just entered the world of GIS over the last several years and have yet to connect 100% of their tracts to their associated tax role line item. Therefore we have graded our data based on its completeness. Our grades are A for complete, B for partially complete and C for near incomplete.

LAVA Lease Management Software

Lease Aquisition Visualization Application (LAVA) is a simple yet powerful tool created to integrate with our online maps and is used to track the progress of a particular prospect, whether in the initial lease check phase or competitive leasing phase.  Brokers enter current leases in the lease check phase and they system automatically tracts these leases using a color coded system that alerts users of expiring leases based on a color code.  Even if a lease check is entered one year and reviewed the next, LLM keeps track of what’s still under lease, what kickers need to be called on, what’s expired, and what’s ready to lease or possibly top-lease.  We call it a “lease check with a heartbeat”.

Based on the data entered for the lease check, a broker can quickly and easily create all of the documents needed to lease or top-lease a particular tract with speed and ease.

Map Driven Scout Data for all of Texas

A picture is worth a thousand words, so OGI is working very hard towards displaying all of our data based on client input.  If a rig is on location we want a rig on the map.  If a permit has been filed but is ageing out we want to graphically show that.  If the rig has moved off and the well hasn't been completed or tested, we want to show that as well, you get the picture.

OGInfo.com's new scouting component will alert our customers when:

A rig is moved on location

Different casing strings are set

Wells are completed

Rigs are moved on location

Other drilling activities of interest occur

Bulk GIS Outsourcing

OGInfo.com can do volume.

OGI owns half of a very successful joint venture called Vasurya, LTD., based in Hyderabad, India where we have 36 full time GIS Professionals on staff along with a number of managers and IT professionals.  In conjunction with our domestic GIS operation, this overseas infrastructure allows us to take on the largest of GIS projects with ease and considerable cost effectiveness.  We can quickly and easily plat hundreds or even thousands of the most complex metes and bounds descriptions or quarter/quarter calls in a few days. This team also specializes in “raster to vector” (paper to digital) conversions, whereby we start with a paper map, scan it on our large format scanner (54 inch) then georectify it under the survey layer and aerials to assist in creating an exact replica in the digital format.

Custom Software

OGInfo.com has the team in place to develop software applications that are tailored to your organization's needs.

OGI specializes in the design and development of custom software solutions for companies needing to control and organize data and images. OGI can write and install software that operates locally and/or internet browser-based. For an organization converting to a paperless environment, OGI has software solutions for document imaging, conversion, managing, and securing. Because this information is so valuable, our software designers can customize your data application to manage administration with security and flexibility. We also can produce custom database conversion software that will help you reorganize and or reformat your data to fit your specific needs (for example, a conversion from MySQL to PstSQL). For your back office demands, OGI can design and implement a Microsoft Office integration and administration plan. The result would be the secure outflow and inflow of inter-office documents and the selective administrative control to monitor all activity.

Custom Mapping

Our GIS programmers and specialists have the skills and experience to produce the exact map that you need to succeed.

OGI’s custom mapping specialists are producing custom applications that reformulate quality, layered, digital maps for a variety of industries. The project managers here at OGinfo.com produce highly detailed and accurate digital mapping that can be converted easily to the file types of most major mapping software applications. Our programming knowledge and experience can empower clients to instantly access a specific GIS database. This information can be utilized to generate digital maps on-line from an office or from anywhere that Internet access is available.

Our GIS programmers and designers can produce multiple digital maps that display county, survey and abstract lines, waterways, roads, cultural landmarks, pipelines, and oil and gas wells for the Gulf Coast States (i.e. Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Oklahoma, and the Gulf of Mexico). For each inquiry, data can be displayed showing longitude and latitude, the API #, operator name and contact person, lease name, field designation, permit date, completion date, completion information, production data, and leasehold ownership. Colored assigned aerial maps are also available. In addition to web site integration and deployment, we also can provide a variety of customized data and programming services.

Our custom mapping services are available for $75/hr. Our mapping service allows you to integrate your proprietary data with our existing data. This includes, but is in no way limited to:
