GIS Spatial Analysis
As part of our GIS Reporting services, Lovell Johns can undertake spatial analysis using GIS and produce map or tabular output; spatial analysis is term used heavily within GIS to describe analysis of a geographic nature and covers a range of formal techniques in a GIS for specific queries which could not be interpreted without using geographical information.
The client often holds datasets such as address listings of branch and customer data which can be easily be geocoded to create a spatial dataset. These datasets can then be analysed against each other, or with third party data such as census or deprivation data.
Typical Spatial Analysis tasks can take the form of:
- Improving direct mail campaigns by telling customers where their nearest store or dealer is located
- Aiding market research studies by analysing census or deprivation data
- Creating sales or delivery territories based on population statistics
- Analysing the location of offices and employees
- Choosing suitable development sites using drivetime analysis
