Welcome to VOLGIS 2.0!

New...Upgraded version of VOLGIS

VOLGIS is a web-based, GIS application that allows users to search for, and retrieve geodetic control information using a graphical interface.  This application has moved beyond the initial development stage, and as a result, the look and feel of VOLGIS has evolved into a fully functional platform that now has a very similar look and feel relative to  many other web mapping applications that you may be familiar with.  We welcome any comments or suggestions (good and bad), and will do what we can to make VOLGIS a powerful and useful tool for the surveying and mapping community.  Give us Feedback
