Routing & Network Analysis
Solving network related problems can be complex, such as finding the fastest route between locations, calculating service areas or tracing connected assets. GIS provides answers to these network analysis problems and can communicate the results in a compelling way through maps.
Multi-Criteria Evaluation
Many geographical business decisions are based on multiple factors. For example, the optimum location for a new site may depend on the density of customers, distance from competitors and the current land use. One of the key benefits of GIS is their ability to integrate, analyse and overlay different spatial datasets to facilitate informed decision-making.
