Location Analytics and Business Intelligence

Since the past decade, business communities have started to adopt location technology and predictive analytics into their business models. Location analytics blends business data with geographic data to reveal the relationship of location to people, events, transactions, facilities and assets. Many BI and analytics software vendors today are integrating mapping and spatial data analytics into their products to provide additional context to visualizations, reports and analysis.

Location analytics help optimize business decisions, from deciding where to locate a new store to improving a supply chain or creating more engaged marketing campaigns. Insurance and financial services use location analytics to simulate risk and verify claims. Businesses also use location technology to manage customers by integrating their ERP, CRM and social networking platforms with GIS.

Location Analytics and Business Intelligence track shall feature business users from mainstream industries discussing the value of geospatial integration in their business workflow.
