About Us

Utility GeoSolutions was formed in 2004 by Bud Porter, a veteran of over 20 years in the Automated Mapping / Facilities Management / Geographic Information Systems (AM/FM/GIS) industry. Even though Utility GeoSolutions is a relatively new company, it is a successor to two other GIS consulting firms founded by Mr. Porter in the 1980's and 1990's, respectively.

Bud's personal background spans over 15 years in engineering and engineering management for an electric and gas utility and two operating telephone companies. By the mid-1980's his experience included the management of a major AM/FM/GIS project, where his engineering background became invaluable in producing a productive implementation. He then began marketing GIS technology to utilities and telecom companies and later provided consulting services to companies involved in geographic information systems. He has worked for or consulted to numerous GIS vendor companies and is considered one of the most experienced and knowledgeable in the implementation of GIS for utilities.

The mission of Utility GeoSolutions is to provide a broad spectrum of GIS service offerings to utility companies, government entities and private companies involved in geospatial information technology projects.  Consulting services can be provided either directly by Utility GeoSolutions staff or through other qualified independent consultants that Utility GeoSolutions can call upon to perform additional services when needed.

Utility GeoSolutions is located in a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia, but like its predecessor companies can respond to clients worldwide.  For more information, please email info@utilitygeo.com or contact us at:
