Our Start:
A Desire to Make a Real Difference
It all began with humble beginnings on the rain-slicked, rocky slopes of Vancouver Island. Driven by a passion to make a tangible difference and help people, GeoSpark was born out of a desire to solve real-world problems in the geological software sector. Our goal was clear from the start: to offer software solutions that were simple, practical, and cost-effective, truly making a difference in the lives of those we worked with.
