Geo-Spatial Analysis
GIS (Geographical Information System) is the tool required for geo-spatial analysis. It provides the ability to visualise your data in relation to other features offering insight into your business. The data in a GIS is held in layers enabling multiple pieces of information to be associated with a single location. Interrogation of the data through calculation and analysis can be carried out using simple queries. A GIS enables a business to present data to clients in a way that is more informative using maps and charts individually or in combination. The creation of new datasets can add value to a company's data and answer questions that are not possible without the geographical element.
Geographical analysis is particularly useful in planning scenarios, for example, where the location of a new store should be. The location of existing customers, potential customers, current store locations and the location of competitors along with the road infrastructure will provide the optimum location for a new store when analysed within a GIS.
Logistical planning can also be carried out using GIS. The optimum route between a set of points in terms of distance and/or time can be calculated as well as identifying which points can be reached within a specified time-frame of a location or multiple locations.
