to automate the records was important. NewCom assisted with
developing a base map of the cemetery and entered their
ownership and interment paper record data into a geo-database.

City acquired an
existing private cemetery within the City limits in January

cemetery operations, and partnered with NewCom Technologies
to assist in creating a map based cemetery record management
system. The existing records were entered into a
spreadsheet and many of the records needed validation. The
City staff spent time walking the cemetery to validate and
NewCom converted the records into a geo database along with
developing a geo reference able map of the cemetery plots.
