Welcome to wagis

Welcome to the GIS Department at Western Arkansas Planning & Development District, Inc. WAPDD offers GIS mapping services for the counties of Crawford, Franklin, Scott and Sebastian.

About us

We are the primary source for Emergency 911 addressing for all of the unincorporated areas of Crawford, Scott and Sebastian Counties, and several incorporated places within each of these counties. All of our 911 mapping has been converted to GIS format.

In addition to converting our 911 mapping to GIS, we have begun to work on many different GIS projects. You can see a list of our projects by clicking the "Project List" tab at the top of this page.

The GIS department is very involved in the River Valley GIS Users Group and volunteers time to help with GIS Day. GIS day is an annual event held in mid-November for area students. This event provides the students with hands-on workshops, games, lunch, educational sessions, exhibitors, etc. For more information on GIS Day, go to www.rivervalleygisusers.org
