The U.S. Geological Survey contracted Digital Data Services, Inc. (DDS) with multiple projects between 2005 and 2010 to vectorize aeromagnetic maps. The objective of the projects was to provide digital GIS files of existing aeromagnetic fields and flight paths for analysis and to determine the remaining areas to collect.

Between 2007 and 2010, Digital Data Services, Inc. (DDS) scanned, georeferenced, and converted over 1,200 coal mine and subsidence maps, approximately 400 per year, into a series of fully attributed GIS feature datasets.
DDS completed nine (9) projects over five (5) years, vectorizing and attributing over 480 abandoned mine maps into ESRI shapefiles throughout Colorado.
Divestco USA, acquired by IHS in 2006, required a universal, large-scale (1:24,000) Public Land Survey GIS coverage file to incorporate into their land mapping, lease mapping, well spotting, and GIS query software.
The objective of this project was to produce high-resolution bathymetric contours of the Great Lakes bottom region.
In the spring of 2005, DDS was tasked to scan, georeference, vectorize, and attribute multiple-scale aquifer maps.
Under a fixed-price contract, the staff at Digital Data Services, Inc. (DDS) converted over 300 hard-copy as-built drawings and approximately 1,500 MicroStation drawing files to AutoCAD to provide a complete set of electric facility as-built drawings.
In 2001, DDS converted original hard-copy geologic hazard maps into fully-attributed ESRI GIS coverage files.
