PBSGEO: Digital Cemetery Software and Mapping Solutions

We are drivers of innovation, leading experts, and competent partners for digitizing cemeteries and the digital management of public green spaces. Our applications are aimed at public, ecclesiastical, and private institutions and organizations.

Experiences of our clients

“The transfer of the data from the old process with 32 cemeteries between 0.8 and 110 hectares in size and around 200,000 grave sites went absolutely smoothly and the presentation is fluid. With the now possible citizen information and the Taphophilia function, we can fulfill numerous requests and wishes from citizens and politicians. pbsgeo is always open to suggestions and additional requests. “We are very satisfied with the entire project.”

Wolfgang NärdemannCemeteries City of Dortmund

“In this collaboration, I and my employees experience it as consistently positive: quick and results-oriented feedback when questions or problems arise; possibilities, especially for improvements, are examined and, if possible, implemented; the telephone calls between our employees and their developers in particular are always very helpful and goal-oriented; we always feel that our requirements are taken seriously.”

Harald HildmannCity of Frankfurt am Main

I am delighted with the software. Various customization options make it easy to generate current maps for multiple application areas and link them to databases. This allows many tasks from the desk that previously required an on-site visit. Stonemasons, funeral directors, and citizens also benefit from this

Wilhelm BongartzCity of Hennef

pg_friedhof dramatically simplifies the creation and updating of digital cemetery maps. The close integration between the cemetery database and pg_friedhof ensures that all geometry-related content is always directly accessible. It provides a great addition to navigation in reality. It's simply enjoyable to work with the program.

Jutta Weingartz-JünglingCity of Blankenheim

With the digital cemetery plan, we can always access grave data on-site. The availability anywhere and anytime and the search function are a great asset to our daily work. The collaboration with the data center was solution-oriented and, thanks to the expertise of PBSGEO, led us to the goal.

Ines HagmannCity of Schorndorf

We are delighted with the PBSGEO applications. pg_friedhof is very user-friendly, and your staff always provides quick support. Keep up the excellent work.

Heike LüningCity of Bottrop

A true innovation for cemeteries: orientation, grave search, and reservations, all in one, for both customers and administration. We are delighted to be able to offer our customers the services of PBSGEO Friedhofsplan. We are pleased with the positive feedback from users and visitors who gladly accept this additional service—a real quantum leap in cemetery management.

Philipp ViragWaldfriedhof Eickhof

Thank you very much for the uncomplicated and competent support from the PBSGEO team. pg_friedhof is the tool we were looking for for the digital cemetery plan. Excellent product and great service!

Frank GeyerCity of Baden-Baden

pbsgeo has been working for the town of Radevormwald since 2013. The city of Radevormwald has always been able to rely on the expertise and reliability of every single pbsgeo employee to its complete satisfaction. Furthermore, pbsgeo is characterized by reliability, flexibility, customer proximity and competence. The town of Radevormwald can therefore recommend pbsgeo in all respects. We look forward to continuing this excellent cooperation.

Marie-Christin Hoffmann City of Radevormwald

pbsgeo really gets to the heart of the digital cemetery plan. The system is very easy to use and the professional support is exceptionally good.

Claudia LapeusCity of Bad Münstereifel

Whether in the office, at home or at the cemetery....the cemetery plans are always available and up-to-date. We are very satisfied and thank you for the fast support and good cooperation.

Andrea MennemannCity of Ascheberg

We found the cooperation with you and your colleagues very good. We were able to quickly clarify any discrepancies regarding data entry by phone or email. The training was also very good. I think we are now well on the way to being able to work with the plan.

Yvonne BenekeCity of Oyten

pg_friedhof is an absolutely understandable and user-friendly program. The pbsgeo team responds very quickly and in a solution-oriented manner. We are delighted with the excellent cooperation.

Frau NeuhausCity of Bornheim AöR

From the transfer of the existing data to the informative plan, the cooperation was excellent. In addition to daily practice on site, the planning documents are used, among other things, to support the council of the copper town of Stolberg in making decisions about the future direction of the municipal cemeteries.

Georg PaulusCity of Stolberg

pg_friedhof makes it much easier for us to plan burial plots. The design options are very versatile. It is a great advantage to always have up-to-date site plans at hand and to be able to make them available to service providers and citizens. Competent, friendly and very fast support!

Annika ThieleCity of Flecken Delligsen

In my opinion, pg_friedhof is a lean and uncomplicated tool that does exactly what it is supposed to do. It can be used quickly by beginners, but does not unnecessarily restrict advanced GIS users. The quick generation of maps on screen or as a printout is a great help for appointments to find graves.

Johannes GünterbergCity of Korschenbroich

The pg_friedhof application works very well. The data is automatically transferred to friedhofsplan.de. The cooperation with pbsgeo is also excellent. There is always a competent contact person available.

Andreas FuestCity of Dorsten

pg_friedhof is very user-friendly and easy to use. The support is excellent. We would choose this program again and again.

Lara SchererCity of Ramstein-Miesenbach

pg-cemetery is easy to use and very user-friendly. The cooperation with pbsgeo works very well and a competent contact person is always available.

Edith SchumacherCity of Schmelz

pg_friedhof supports me optimally in the administration of our cemeteries. I simply enjoy working with the program.

Heiko TomszewskiCity of Erkrath

pg_friedhof supports our work in the administration of the cemeteries enormously. The program is a great advantage for the service to citizens and service providers and for cost accounting. The cooperation with pbsgeo is very good. When problems arise, they are always solved quickly and competently.

Stephan BrustCity of Sankt Wendel

The collaboration with PBSgeo worked really well. The employees were always competent and motivated. The software package makes work in the cemetery sector much more pleasant. The employees really enjoy using pg_friedhof.

Klaus BreuerCity of Castrop-Rauxel

pg_friedhof offers us a very good visualization of our cemeteries with great customization and printing options. The support is fast, friendly and competent. We feel that our cemeteries are in very good hands with pbsgeo.

Robert KowalskiPfarrei St. Christophorus Wanne-Eickel

We have finally made the leap from the old and worn-out linen paper cemetery plans to the digital cemetery plans from pbsgeo. pg_friedhof is linked to our cemetery program and runs flawlessly. Communication, installation, data entry and service work wonderfully. Always friendly, helpful and competent.

Gregor HerzogCity of Rheinbach

In the summer of this year, we converted the entire cemetery administration and the associated connection to a digital plan. The staff at pbsgeo respond very quickly and competently. They are always ready to provide support and offer solutions if there are problems with the changeover. We are very satisfied!

Christel SteinsträterEv.-luth. St. Petri Kirchengemeinde Oyten

pg_friedhof is an enormous relief. Depending on the cemetery, it can contain huge amounts of data and is still very easy to use. Thanks to the user-friendliness of the operating system, anyone can manage the geodata of their own cemeteries without any special prior knowledge. However, if there is ever a problem, the PBSGEO team is always ready to help at short notice and with great friendliness!

Moritz SeilerCity of Mülheim an der Ruhr

The digital cemetery plan not only optimizes the daily business of the cemetery administration, but also offers citizens the opportunity to view the cemetery plans of their city. The company pbsgeo has always accompanied us on the way there with commitment and incorporated all our wishes.

Jennifer MatheisCity of Alzey

A real relief and support for our daily cemetery work. Not only for us, but also for tradespeople such as stonemasons and gardeners and, of course, for the public. The implementation is a real gain, also in terms of our external image as a progressive, modern cemetery administration. PBSGEO and its competent and friendly staff carried out the data entry correctly and in an uncomplicated and timely manner. A big compliment to the PBSGEO team.

Hans-Jürgen JägerTechnische Betriebe Offenburg

Apart from that, we wanted to emphasize once again that we were extremely satisfied with the fast implementation. The responsiveness of PBSGEO is also highly commendable. In addition, there were no problems with the data transfer from the TeraFRI cemetery database and the cemetery plan is clearly structured and easy to understand. In short, the investment has so far paid off in full.

Andreas PielmeierCity of Geiselhöring

Many thanks to the PBSGEO team for the smooth implementation of the project. PBSGEO is clearly laid out, clearly structured, easy to use and an absolute benefit for our daily work. Regardless of whether it is the creation of a cemetery plan with a print function, the sensibly designed filters, which not only show the grave status but also the end of the resting period and period of use, or the issuing of work orders by the cemetery gardeners directly from the grave. But PBSGEO also has great added value for citizens, for example through the grave search, which even takes you directly to the desired grave with GPS navigation, or the link to the online burial calendar, in which you can see the upcoming burials. We can only warmly recommend the introduction of PBSGEO to every municipality.

Daniel FelsmannCity of Schongau

When we founded the Banz natural cemetery, it was important to us to find a suitable, forward-looking tool with which we, as a service provider under private law, the municipal administration as the owner and operator, and the citizens could work, exchange, search and pass on information in equal measure. We found all of this in the PBSGEO product - the digital cemetery map. After the implementation phase, we are still in constant contact with the PBSGEO team and are constantly optimizing the digital administration. The positive feedback from citizens confirms our decision to work with PBSGEO on a daily basis. We are very satisfied!

Digital tree inspection and green space management: challenges and solutions for municipalities

Municipal green spaces are important components of the public space and require continuous maintenance and monitoring. The road safety of trees in particular is a key task for cities and municipalities. In order to minimize risks and make administrative work more efficient, digital solutions such as the applications from PBSGEO GmbH in Cologne are increasingly being used.

Making processes more efficient – saving time with digital cemetery plans

Digital cemetery plans and administration systems not only make the work of those responsible easier, but also help to make processes more efficient.

Modern methods of data collection in cemeteries – an overview

The digital recording of cemetery data is playing an increasingly important role in modern cemetery management. But which method is the best? Technical possibilities, costs and individual requirements must be carefully weighed up. This article provides an overview of seven proven methods and shows which technology is best suited to which situations.

Trades at the cemetery

Not only are the cemetery administrations active in the cemetery, but also numerous external trades such as morticians, gardeners and stonemasons. Smooth cooperation between these parties is essential, but there are often various challenges that stand in the way.

Thanks to a digital program – the cemetery under control

“Working with the digital cemetery map makes our work a lot easier,” says Daniel Felsmann from Schongau town council. The implementation went very smoothly in cooperation with PBSGEO and was described by the employees as “swift and courteous”.
