What is ArcGIS Business Analyst?
ArcGIS Business Analyst helps you make smarter decisions for market planning, site selection, and customer segmentation by combining demographic, business, lifestyle, spending, and census data with map-based analytics. Business Analyst demographic mapping software helps you identify underperforming markets, pinpoint the right growth sites, find where your target customers live, and share the analysis across your organization as accurate infographic reports and dynamic presentations.
What data is included with ArcGIS Business Analyst?
ArcGIS Business Analyst leverages data through the ArcGIS GeoEnrichment Service and locally installed data. You can access tens of thousands of variables describing demographics, consumer spending, market potential, businesses, drive-time analysis, purchasing power and much more for countries and markets around the world. With ArcGIS Business Analyst data, you can combine these datasets with your own proprietary data to gain deeper insights into your areas of interest, support better decisions and achieve your organization’s goals.
