Our history

An employer of choice, Effigis currently has more than 150 multidisciplinary employees trained to meet the specific needs of each client, regardless of the sector of activity, size or location of the project.

Founded in 1991 as VIASAT GeoTechnologies (VGI Solutions in the U.S.), the company initially offered services in remote sensing, mapping and satellite positioning. It quickly built an enviable reputation in the field of geomatics and gained the trust of clients from various sectors.

With the arrival of three senior partners, the company adds unparalleled expertise in geographic information systems (GIS), telecommunications and geology.

In 2012, the increasing growth of our international activities led us to review our corporate identity. This is how VIASAT became “Effigis Geo-Solutions Inc. A growth curve then began that allowed us to go and find several new clients both nationally and internationally.

Today, Effigis designs, develops and implements innovative geospatial solutions to optimize our clients’ business processes. Over the years, the company has developed two product lines: CPAT systems for cable network monitoring and the OnPOZ software suite for geospatial data collection and GNSS signal processing.
