STORIES & SOLUTIONS FOR THE MODERN BUSINESS USER

Stop for a moment and think about your month so far. How many times did you have to decide where to park your car, which restaurant to choose, or which healthcare provider is right for you? With so many options and so much information at your disposal, modern decision-making processes often can feel overwhelming. This feeling is especially prevalent when navigating the ins-and-outs of government bureaucracies. Information can be scattered across multiple sources, and you might not have time to research every available website and document—especially for time-sensitive decisions like choosing a healthcare provider.

Whether or not you realize it, we rely on geospatial data analysis every single day in our modern world. Geospatial data analysis involves collecting, combining, and visualizing various data sets that represent people, places, and things on Earth. On any given day, you might use GPS to meet your friend at a new restaurant in town or search for a healthcare provider near your home. Geospatial analysis enables our day-to-day lives to run seamlessly. Accordingly, it’s become more important than ever for organizations to leverage geospatial analysis for data analytics and business intelligence needs.
