Our Story
Alcis’ Managing Director, Richard Brittan, founded the company in 2004 with a vision to use his expertise, coupled with great data, to answer questions and improve situations in fragile and complex environments around the world.
The company has grown and now has unrivalled experience working with governments, multilateral development agencies and NGOs.
We work globally and the team share a common goal to make satellite imagery, geospatial analysis and visualisation more relevant to non expert users.

The Alcis team is made up of geospatial and analytical experts with skills and experience of working in complex environments all around the world. Our people are trusted and practiced working within sensitive, political and volatile situations to deliver vital understanding for decision makers.
Our success is dependent upon the collective energy, intelligence, and contributions of all of our staff.
Having a strong and close team is critical for our success and wherever we are and whatever we are doing, we support and encourage each other.
We believe in collaborating for success and, through decades of collaboration, have developed a network of skilled subject matter experts, Academics and universities.
Based on the Surrey Research Park, a major centre of excellence in technology, science, health and engineering, in Guildford, we have easy access to London and Heathrow and Gatwick airports.

Humanitarian Aid
Learn more about our work helping organisations working in disaster areas and on humanitarian crises.
We support the humanitarian sector in helping improve the lives of the world’s most vulnerable people who are suffering from violence and the impact of climate change.
We understand that the challenge of leaving no one behind is impossible unless you know where the people are. Our data, products and analysis helps achieve this.
Development and Livelihoods
Crop modelling and hyper-spectral analysis to determine which crops are best suited to the terrain as well as appraising the density and health of plant life.
We work with government and NGO development and aid programmes worldwide, mapping metrics such as population distribution, crop growth, water sources and changes to terrain.
We design and deliver solutions to support the development of the countries where we work to permanently improve the quality of life for the most vulnerable. Our goal is to leave no one behind.
Climate Change
Our global products help inform decision makers on environment and conservation priorities.
Farmers in developing countries are reliant on their crops for a source of income and climate has a direct link on crop yield and the growing seasons. It is critical to monitor variations in climate variables.
Our global products help inform decision makers on environment and conservation priorities, which help to solve big questions around where and how to grow crops.
Governance and Stability
We work on security related projects such as counter-narcotics and 3D-modelling high value secure locations.
We understand that, in many fragile and complex countries, political landscapes are sensitive and trusted relationships are essential and take a long time to develop and nurture.
By providing accurate visual data of territory and communities we provide tools to help governments improve governance and build stability in fragile and complex environments.
