GeoDecisions, an award-winning leader in the information technology industry specializing in geographic information systems (GIS), recently won the 2007 Center for Digital Government Achievement Award in the Best of the Web’s Government-to-Government category for the design of The Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP). The Best of the Web program honors outstanding government portals and Web sites based on their innovations, functionality, and efficiencies.

GeoDecisions teamed with the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation Bureau of Planning and Research to develop and implement the LTAP Web site.

Additionally, this Web site was successfully implemented under budget, a testament to quality design and development.
