Survey, Mapping and Recording at Endemap is the foundation of our data-driven approach to understanding communities and their environments. By combining advanced technologies with human-centered research, we create detailed and dynamic records that inform sustainable development, advocacy, and planning.

Our process begins with community and environmental data collection, capturing information about geography, infrastructure, natural resources, land use, and socio-economic activities. We employ modern tools such as LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) for high-precision topographic mapping, allowing us to assess terrain, vegetation cover, and urban development with remarkable accuracy.

Photography—both aerial and ground-level—is used to visually document physical structures, environmental conditions, and community layouts. Interviews and participatory research ensure that the voices of local residents are included, providing critical insights into lived experiences, historical knowledge, and community priorities.

Through systematic recording and mapping, we build comprehensive databases that reflect the current status and needs of communities. These records are not just data points—they are stories, histories, and roadmaps for future action.

At Endemap, our goal is to turn this data into powerful tools for decision-making, planning, and justice. Whether used for resettlement planning, resource management, or policy development, our surveys ensure that no voice or detail is overlooked.
