What Engemap Geoinformation does

Engemap Geoinformation (legal name Engenharia e Aerolevantamento LTDA) is a privately held Brazilian geotechnology and civil engineering services company founded in 1989 by cartographic engineer César Antonio Francisco, headquartered in Assis, São Paulo, with additional offices in São Paulo and Brasília. The company delivers an integrated stack of aerial surveying, cartography, GIS software, and engineering project services to federal and state transportation agencies (notably DNIT, DER, and the government of Santa Catarina), energy and transmission-line operators (Chesf, Duke Energy, Copel, INCOMISA), road concessionaires (CCR, Arteris), and municipal administrations. Its proprietary SAAPI airborne digital imaging system, co-developed with UNESP, is the first digitally-homologated aerial camera platform in Brazil, and the maritime SAAPI-MAR variant serves the Brazilian Navy; the firm also operates Riegl LIDAR, CASI-1500 hyperspectral, and FireMapper thermal sensors mounted on three owned aircraft.

Engemap monetizes through three revenue streams: professional services delivered via public tenders and direct contracts (engineering supervision, aerial surveying, expropriation and land regularization, civil engineering project execution); one-time and licensing revenue from proprietary software (Engemobi GIS platform for road concession asset management and Geofácil geoprocessing system for municipal territorial management); and exclusive Brazil distribution of Trimble Quantm corridor alignment software with accompanying training and support. Customer concentration leans toward federal and state infrastructure buyers, with anchor engagements including the 97,037 km² State of Santa Catarina mapping, the 65,000 km DNIT Phase I GPS survey, and the multi-state PROFAIXA highway domain regularization program. The company's competitive position rests on regulatory credentials (ISO 9001, ISO 14001:2015, Ministry of Defence, ANAC, Navy, DECEA, INCRA), 35+ years of accumulated georeferenced data, capital-intensive owned sensor and aircraft infrastructure, and a 150+ person multidisciplinary technical team.
