Esri Location Analytics enables organizations to maximize data and applications by revealing the where in their corporate data. Esri Location Analytics extends the value of traditional enterprise applications by incorporating GIS to help you visualize, question, analyze, interpret, and understand data. It consists of a scalable platform that works in the cloud, on mobile devices, and within existing information technology (IT) systems.
The result is access to better information for organizations at every level that unearths relationships, patterns, and trends that would otherwise remain locked away.
“We want to help people get the most out of their enterprise systems,” says Jack Dangermond, president, Esri. “Location analytics lets you understand the where associated with business activities. You can easily visualize data, take it to the cloud, and open up access. That means better, faster decision making for everyone.”
