3. What is Geospatial Business Intelligence?
(aka Location Intelligence)
• An awareness of relationships between location based information ,
business analysis and operations
• The ability to understand geographic relationships and how those
relationships can impact a business or organization
• The capability to react to how location influences an organization by
changing business processes in order to minimize risk and maximize
opportunities
Geospatial business intelligence enables an organization to measure, compare and
analyze data from business operations in conjunction with external data such as
transportation networks, regulatory jurisdictions, market characteristics or its own
customers.

5. Who Can Benefit from
Geospatial Business Intelligence?
• Most organizations could benefit from utilizing location in decision making,
including those that:
Market by geography
• Target marketing, merchandising
Plan by geography
• Telecom network build out, store trade area analysis
Assign assets by geography
• Assigning services management, law enforcement resources, engineering resources , sales representatives
Track resources by geography
• Analyze customers sales by sales territories
Manage services by geography
• Customer services, financial services, management services
Smart business requires enough intelligence to understand how location
relationships impact an organization’s operations, but not so much information that
implementing systems and procedures to evaluate and act on the new information
becomes paralyzing. Organizations need to predict the impact of location
relationships and have the capabilities to respond appropriately.
