GIS / Cartography Specialist for Investor-Grade Market Maps
We are seeking an experienced GIS or cartography specialist to create clean, presentation-ready market maps for use in real estate investor pitch decks and fundraising materials. This engagement is limited strictly to map creation only; all branding, layout, and final presentation design will be handled internally.
Projects are primarily located in the southeastern United States. For each market, we will commission two maps:
•Neighborhood Map (up to 1-mile radius)
• Area Map (up to 5-mile radius)
For each assignment, we will provide the state, city, site address, and a reference aerial view. Maps must incorporate the most current aerial imagery available and accurately placed points of interest.
Points of Interest (POIs)
POIs will vary by market and may include:
• National retail
• Grocery
• Pharmacy
• Hotels
• Medical services / healthcare
• Additional POIs as defined per site
Design & Data Requirements
• Use current aerial imagery and reliable GIS data sources
• Roads, highways, and major arterials must be clearly legible
• Maps must be visually clean, neutral, and unbranded
• No logos, templates, watermarks, or branding elements
Deliverables
• SVG (fully editable, clean file structure)
• PNG (high-resolution, presentation-ready)
SVG files should be clean and editable, without unnecessary clipping masks or flattened elements.
Pricing Structure
• Fixed price per map
• Two maps per market (Neighborhood + Area)
• Candidates should propose per-map pricing in their application
We anticipate ongoing work across multiple markets and are open to discussing volume efficiency over time.
Turnaround Expectations
• 48 hours per market (2 maps total) once inputs are provided
• Turnaround clock begins upon receipt of:
o Site address
o Radius confirmation
o POI categories
Please note any constraints or exceptions in your proposal.
Revisions
• Includes one round of minor revisions, defined as:
o POI additions/removals
o Label adjustments
o Minor radius refinements within scope
• Excludes style changes after approval or full map rebuilds
A consistent visual style will be established with the first market and applied to subsequent maps.
Required Experience
• Professional experience in GIS, cartography, or map design
• Familiarity with tools such as Mapbox, ArcGIS, QGIS, or similar
• Strong attention to geographic accuracy and visual hierarchy
• Experience producing maps for real estate, development, or investor-facing materials preferred

1. Examples of similar maps you’ve produced (real estate or investor-facing preferred)
2. Your proposed per-map fixed pricing
3. Typical turnaround time and availability
