Cemetery Management
Pear can convert your old paper cemetery maps into a modern digital format that can be easily updated and amended using our PT-Mapper Pro software. The digital copy of your cemetery map can then be linked to your burial records using our MapLink software. It is now a very simple process to record new burials and cremations and to find out who is where in your cemetery.
Find out more on our Cemetery Services page or read how Higham Ferrers Town Council have digitized their map and records here.

Asset Management
Allotment Management
We are part way through the mapping process as we have three cemeteries to contend with. The process is very straight forward and Pear have been extremely professional and helpful. Having all of the details of Poundbury Cemetery at my fingertips has well been worth the cost and effort involved and will prevent any mistakes being made in future.
Modular software
PT-Mapper
PT-Mapper is easy to use. It enables you to overlay your own information onto freely available Ordnance Survey maps and take data from other sources such as Land Registry and higher Councils. Use for asset management, event planning, cemeteries, allotments.
MapLink
Connects management databases and spreadsheets to your map. Clicking on a map object then immediately displays the relevant data. You can also search for and highlight specific features on the map such as details of interments, trees requiring attention, allotment tenants, etc.
Asset Manager
Asset Manager records all the details of your assets including photographs, incident logs and provides automatic task reminders to be audit compliant. Asset Manager requires little training and includes a map so that the location of each asset can be displayed.
Support
We provide you with a ready to use system, training and on- going support to get you and your colleagues started. For cemeteries, allotments and events we offer a map preparation service and for town and parish maps, we can work with you to plot all your information, assets etc. so that you receive a map that is ready for immediate use.
Maps and data sets
It is important to note that our mapping software enables you to edit digital map data such as that provided by Ordnance Survey. Local Councils are entitled to use Ordnance Survey map data at no cost once they have signed up to the Public Sector Geospatial Agreement (PSGA). More details can be found here.
Joining the PSGA gives you access to “free” map data but you will still need our map editing software, PT-Mapper Pro to view and edit your map data.
Pear Technology is a Licensed Partner with the Ordnance Survey and so we can supply you with all the map data that you require once you have joined the PSGA.
There is a wide range of map data available and we will advise you on which map data set is most appropriate for your use.

Mobile devices
We can supply a range of mobile GPS devices (‘phone, tablet or specialist unit) to take out on-site to record the location and condition of assets such as bins, trees, bus shelters, street lights, etc. Information recorded can then be quickly added to your map or logged into a spreadsheet.
