Manastash Mapping

Specialties

Manastash Mapping provides quality, affordable mapping and geographic analysis to community organizations, governments, and businesses in Kittitas County and the Yakima River Basin.

History

Established in 2010.

Manastash Mapping was created to address the geographic needs of community organizations in Kittitas County and the Yakima River Basin. Too many small organizations cannot afford a GIS staff, and do not need a full fledged surveying company, so they do without mapping support. By specializing in one area, Manastash Mapping has the data needed to create maps to promote businesses and events, analyze issues of local concern, and present material in a geographic context.

Jennifer H.

Business Owner

Manastash Mapping is a one-​woman GIS (Geographic Information Service) consulting firm. I bring experience in GIS technology, resource management, and analysis. I know Kittitas County and the Yakima River Basin — my master’s thesis examined water policy in this area, I moderate a local parenting group with over 270 members, and I have two children in the Ellensburg public Schools. I understand the strengths and limitations of GIS — and teach it at Central Washington University. I have extensive experience using sophisticated technology to analyze data to find the best solution for complex problems — I worked for the Department of Defense for 15 years, finding creative ways to use technology to satisfy mission objectives.
