GIS & Geospatial Development in Rochdale
Web maps with MapLibre GL, Leaflet, Mapbox or OpenLayers. Spatial analysis with QGIS, PyQGIS, GeoPandas and GDAL. Drone survey processing. Satellite imagery analysis on Google Earth Engine. We bring real GIS rigour (CRS handling, projections, OS / OSM / ONS / Copernicus data) and ship it as something a non-technical user can operate.
Why Rochdale businesses pick BozApps for geospatial & gis
Rochdale sits inside the Greater Manchester spatial framework, with town centre regeneration, mill conversions and valley topography that a flat plan drawing struggles to communicate. Terrain matters here in a way it does not in most towns. We build 3D models with real ground levels underneath the buildings, so height and views read honestly rather than optimistically.
Real terrain and LiDAR ground levels, not buildings floating on a flat plane
Sun and shadow studies for valley sites where context genuinely changes the answer

Questions Rochdale businesses ask us
Straight answers, real numbers. Anything else, just ask on a free 30-minute call and you'll have a written proposal within five working days.
What geospatial work do you actually do?
Interactive web maps with MapLibre, Leaflet and Mapbox, spatial dashboards, QGIS and Python analysis, drone-survey processing and satellite imagery work, all delivered as tools non-technical teams can operate.
Do you work with councils and public bodies?
Yes. We have local-authority experience through Bozmaps, build to WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility standards, and are used to public-sector procurement timelines.
What data can you work with?
OS OpenData, OpenStreetMap, ONS and Copernicus among others, with proper CRS and projection handling, alongside your own survey, asset or customer data.
Can the map be embedded in our existing website?
Yes. Embeddable widgets and GPX/GeoJSON exports are standard deliverables, so the map works inside whatever platform you already run.
