ST-00GIS software for municipalities
From the field, to the layer, to the decision
Five products born from fieldwork with Israeli municipalities. Two are live in production, one runs on ArcGIS today while its next generation is built, one is in pilot and one is a concept. Each one is labelled with exactly where it stands.
ST-01 One principle
Data captured once, delivered to everyone who needs it
HAMMER's software is built around a single data chain. CADabra and SEE.GMMA produce GIS layers from CAD drawings and aerial imagery. HAMMER CITY puts the authority's layers in front of every employee, in one map. SIGNYX and CLIMYX each specialise in one domain: the traffic committee's work, and urban heat.

How we build software
-
On what you already have
HAMMER CITY, CADabra and SIGNYX work with the authority's ArcGIS Online. ArcGIS is Esri's platform; we build on it and never present it as ours.
-
Open formats
CADabra exports Shapefile, File GDB, GeoPackage, GeoJSON and KML. SEE.GMMA exports GeoPackage and GeoJSON.
-
The Israeli grid
Support for ITM (EPSG:2039) and the Survey of Israel 108021 transformation, in CADabra and HAMMER CITY.
-
Hebrew, right to left
HAMMER CITY and CADabra are built for right-to-left Hebrew. CADabra is also available in English.
-
A human in the loop
AI assists, a person decides: in SEE.GMMA every output is reviewed, and in CADabra an unknown layer waits for a decision.
-
Honest status
Every product is labelled live, pilot, in development or concept. Anything planned is marked as planned.
ST-06 Beyond software
Good software needs good data, and people beside it
ST-07 FAQ
Questions and answers
Which GIS products does HAMMER develop?
Five: HAMMER CITY (map site for municipal staff, live), CADabra (CAD to GIS, live), SIGNYX (traffic committee management, live on ArcGIS with a new app in development), SEE.GMMA (AI-assisted mapping from aerial imagery, pilot) and CLIMYX (urban heat analysis, concept stage).
Do the products work with ArcGIS?
HAMMER CITY and SIGNYX are built on ArcGIS Online, and CADabra publishes to it. SEE.GMMA exports open formats (GeoPackage and GeoJSON) that load into any GIS.
Do we have to take all the products together?
No. Each product stands on its own. They connect through the authority's ArcGIS Online and open formats, so you can start with one and add others if needed.
Where is our data kept?
In HAMMER CITY, layers stay in the authority's ArcGIS Online, and CAD files opened on the map are read in the browser only. CADabra is hosted on Google Cloud, publishes to your organization's ArcGIS Online and exports to open formats. In SEE.GMMA the orthophoto stays where it is, and only the selected tiles are sent to Google Gemini for analysis.
What's the difference between a HAMMER product and a survey?
A survey is a service: the HAMMER team collects data in the field or from aerial imagery and delivers GIS layers. A product is a tool your team works with every day. They often go together: the survey produces the data, and the software manages it.
How do we get started?
With a demo. We'll hear what you have today, show the relevant product in action, and agree on the first step together.
