GIS Site Origination & Spatial Intelligence
RCS Imaging provides GIS-based site screening and spatial intelligence for renewable energy, electric utility, infrastructure, and industrial development projects.
We combine current county parcel data, property records, ownership information, transmission and substation infrastructure, environmental constraints, and advanced spatial analysis to identify and evaluate potential development opportunities.
Our focus is finding opportunities that are difficult to identify through conventional property searches. This includes screening large geographic areas, identifying adjoining parcels that can collectively meet acreage requirements, and researching ownership and infrastructure relationships at the parcel level.
Site Origination & Development Screening
Renewable Energy Site Identification
- Utility-scale solar
- Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)
- Hybrid energy projects
- Early-stage greenfielding
Infrastructure Site Screening
- Data center site identification
- Industrial and manufacturing sites
- Powered land opportunities
- Infrastructure development opportunities
Transmission & Electrical Infrastructure
- Transmission line proximity analysis
- Substation proximity analysis
- Transmission voltage data
- ROW and transmission corridor analysis
- Parcel-to-infrastructure relationships
Parcel & Ownership Analysis
- Current county parcel data
- Parcel ownership research
- Assessor and tax record research
- Large-acreage parcel screening
- Adjoining parcel assembly
- Private vs. government-owned land filtering
Advanced Spatial Screening
Our GIS workflows can screen thousands of parcels against customized development criteria and identify groups of properties that may be overlooked during conventional site searches.
Environmental & Physical Constraints
- FEMA flood zones
- Terrain and physical constraints
- Water and geographic features
- Infrastructure setbacks
- Custom exclusion criteria
Multi-Parcel Opportunity Analysis
- Identify adjoining parcels
- Combine parcels to meet acreage targets
- Analyze ownership relationships
- Evaluate infrastructure access
- Build customized opportunity portfolios
Custom GIS Data & Opportunity Reports
Every development project has different requirements. We can build custom GIS screening criteria around acreage, ownership, electrical infrastructure, location, environmental constraints, ROW access, or other project-specific requirements.
Once the underlying county and GIS data has been collected and aligned, large numbers of potential sites can be screened rapidly and delivered as interactive maps and customized opportunity reports.
