About Us
“Honey badgers are not just fearless, but astonishingly clever.”
– A Buttery-Voiced BBC Narrator
Honey Badger Analytics views the world in four dimensions. The stuff that lies under the surface? Data. And a honey badger loves nothing more than to dig.
We’re here to help you slip on those 4D glasses and make better sense of your community.
Our Values
Trust
If you can’t trust your data, what’s the point?
Guidance
Our species drew up maps to guide others; let’s carry on that tradition.
Esprit de Corps
No matter the fight, we’re with you on the frontlines.
Our Mission
Data is like dirt: messy, and full of sh*t.
And if you till it and treat it right, it grows one hell of a garden.
Honey Badger Analytics was founded to help communities get their hands dirty by using GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and geomatic tools to better understand what’s beneath their feet. Other GIS consultants guard expertise and hide behind technical complexity. Not us.
We’re the Virgil to your Dante, holding your hand through hell and high water. GIS for small towns is knowledge capture: preserving institutional memory, informing good decisions, and empowering communities long after we’re gone by providing tools and knowledge that last. “Knowing is half the battle,” right?
What does that look like?
- Mapping every water pipe in a town—in four hours.
- Providing superintendents with real-time leak detection mapping.
- Building a bridge-condition map for the entirety of Maine, updated every hour.
Knowledge is fickle. Retirements, turnover, budget cuts—suddenly, no one remembers where the valves are or how the stormwater model works. We help you treat GIS as a living system, not a one-time service. A community that controls its spatial data controls its future.
Small communities deserve better. When you’re digging for data, it helps to have a honey badger by your side. Contact us here, and take control of your future today.
