### INNOVATION THINKGIS

“Over the next few years, many new vineyards will appear throughout the Kent countryside and you can be sure that the majority of them will have been identified, in the first instance, using the ArcGIS capabilities in FarmView. This innovative solution has made us far more profitable and given us a strong competitive edge over other land agencies.” **Edward Mansel Lewis, Senior Associate Director, Strutt & Parker**

“The ArcGIS platform provides all of the capability required to deliver a data-driven approach to site selection and determine the ‘highest and best use’ of land. It is easy to deploy new applications and share data, plus it is scalable, resilient and has security built in. I wouldn’t have considered building FarmView with any other GIS system.” **Pete Wain, Managing Director, Mapman**

FarmView uses the ArcGIS platform to measure and score land suitable for vineyards.
