Pipelines, port yards, a smart city and an eroding shoreline: much of what Dakshina Kannada manages is spread across a map. WebGIS puts that map in a browser.

Trusted by 200+ organisations across India & overseas — including






























Between the sea and the Western Ghats, Dakshina Kannada packs a great deal into a narrow strip. Pipeline corridors run from the port to the refinery and the SEZ. The city corporation maintains roads, drains, streetlights and water lines across a hilly city. The coast at Ullal erodes each monsoon, and the ghat roads towards Charmadi and Shiradi suffer slips. The people responsible mostly work from paper maps, CAD drawings and spreadsheets of coordinates.
WebGIS development brings these onto one interactive map that opens in a browser or on a phone. Acube builds with open GIS tools such as PostGIS, QGIS, Leaflet and OpenLayers, so there is no per-seat licence and you own the code and data. Layers, search, filters, field data capture with GPS and spatial reports are built around the decisions your team must take, not around generic map features.

Where a valve, a culvert or a cable joint lies is often in one engineer's memory. Mapping the network with attributes and photographs means the knowledge survives a transfer or a retirement.
Field teams in Bantwal or Belthangady collect data on forms that wait weeks for entry. A mobile capture app tags each record with its location and syncs it to the central map the same day.
Industrial estates and institutions with large campuses hold plot plans, lease details and utility drawings in separate cabinets. Linking them to a map lets a manager click a plot and see everything about it.
An example
On a July morning after a night of heavy rain, the drainage cell of the city corporation opens the map. Complaints logged overnight appear as points; three cluster in a low ward near Kottara where a culvert was cleaned last year. The engineer clicks the culvert and sees its inspection history and the photograph from that visit. A field team is sent with a mobile capture app; they record the blockage, the water level and a new photograph, and the record appears on the central map while they are still on site. At noon the commissioner looks at the ward, sees the pattern of repeat complaints along one drain line, and approves a survey rather than another cleaning.
A WebGIS project starts with your data, even if it is only a spreadsheet of coordinates or a set of scanned drawings. We review it remotely from Kochi, Kerala, and propose a focused first build. Field capture training is best done on the ground, so we travel to Dakshina Kannada for that and for go-live. Hosting can be on your own servers in Mangaluru or on cloud.
Discovery and data audit. Your spatial data and the decisions the map must support.
Data model. Your data modelled in a spatial database, clean and ready to scale.
Map and application design. Layers, filters, search, dashboards and field capture around your users.
Integration. The map connected to your ERP, asset registers and GPS feeds.
Deploy, train and support. Launched on a stack you control, your team trained, support kept on.
The scope and timeline are agreed in writing before work starts.
Port and shipping logistics
Yard and warehouse layouts, berth-side utilities, truck parking and route planning between Panambur, Baikampady and the highways, shown live for operations teams.
Petrochemicals and refining
Pipeline corridors, right-of-way records, inspection points and emergency response zones on one map, with inspection history attached to each segment.
Fisheries and cashew processing
Landing centres, ice plants and cold stores mapped for fisheries bodies and cooperatives, and grower or supplier locations mapped for processors planning procurement routes.
No. We build on open, standards-based GIS, which avoids per-seat fees and leaves you free to extend the system. If you already hold commercial GIS data, we import shapefiles, GeoJSON and similar formats.
Honestly, the strongest cases in Dakshina Kannada are civic bodies, utilities, the port and industrial estates. Private firms benefit when assets, customers or suppliers are spread across territory, as with logistics operators and plantation groups. If a simple list will do, we will say so.
Yes. Maps can draw on ERPNext records, asset registers and live GPS feeds, so an asset's maintenance history or a vehicle's position appears on the same screen as its location.
After a first conversation about your spatial data, the users and the decisions the map has to support, we agree the scope and send you a written quotation. The price, the deliverables and the timeline are fixed against that scope before any work starts, so nothing grows without your sign-off.
You speak to someone who does this work, not a call centre. They ask about the data you hold, who needs to see it on a map and what they decide from it. If it looks like a fit, we agree the scope and put it in writing, with the timeline, before any work starts. If it does not, we tell you.
Mangaluru City Corporationlocal body
The city corporation maintains roads, drains, streetlights and water lines across a hilly city that floods every monsoon. A web map with assets, complaints and inspection history is its working tool.
Balkunje industrial area, Mulki taluk (planned)park
About 1,000 acres across Balkunje, Kollur and Ulepady announced for acquisition in 2022 and listed as a planned new industrial area on the state portal; not yet developed, so do not present it as open.
About a thousand acres across Balkunje, Kollur and Ulepady are planned for acquisition. Plot plans, ownership and utility corridors for a new estate belong on a map from the first survey.

Ullala's coast erodes each monsoon and its municipal council must plan sea walls and relocation. Shoreline surveys year on year, overlaid on a map, show what is actually moving.

new fishing harbour north of the city being built by New Mangalore Port Authority under Sagarmala / Gati Shakti at about Rs 147 crore, intended to relieve the crowded old harbour
A fishing harbour under construction at Kulai involves dredging, breakwaters and approach roads. Survey data, progress and coastal change belong on one map for the agencies involved.
