Every Enographiae map of Champagne, from the village wine maps to the geological maps, is created in GIS from geographic and geological data: vineyards, soils, relief, roads and rivers. Only the layout changes from map to map, and the print format follows the scale of each map.
At Enographiae, we harness applied geosciences to create highly detailed and precise representations of the complex "wine landscape" system.
Central to our approach is the use of GIS (Geographic Information System) technology, which allows us to collect, analyze, and visualize geographical and territorial data with exceptional accuracy.
GIS is a powerful tool that integrates spatial data—including location, geometry, and various attributes—enabling us to map and manage vineyard landscapes in ways that reflect their natural and cultural complexity.
By using GIS, we transform raw data into insightful thematic maps that reveal patterns and relationships essential for understanding terroir.
Our cartographic database is managed with PostgreSQL/PostGIS, a robust open-source software platform designed to efficiently organize and process large volumes of spatial data.
For map creation and spatial analysis, we rely on QGIS 3, an advanced GIS software that supports the production of customized thematic maps tailored to the specific needs of the wine and agri-food sectors.
The Enographiae project is a versatile digital tool that applies Earth Sciences principles to manage geographic, topological, and informational data.
This allows for comprehensive exploration of vineyard environments, benefiting producers, researchers, and industry professionals by providing deeper insights into the relationships between geology, geography, and viticulture.
