xyzt.ai Named IDC Innovator Offering Location and Geospatial Intelligence Solutions
Leuven 14 October 2021 – xyzt.ai, a Leuven-based high-tech company offering an innovative visual analytics SaaS (Software as a Service) platform for big location data, has been named an IDC Innovator offering location and geospatial intelligence solutions.
International Data Corporation (IDC) has published an IDC Innovators report profiling five companies offering location and geospatial intelligence solutions that assist enterprises in gathering information about real and digital worlds in dimensions that include space. The five companies are; CARTO, Capella Space, Inpixon, IQGeo, and xyzt.ai.
The collection of location data is not new, but until recently location has not been central to most organizations’ data analytics and business intelligence efforts. As the amount of data gathered and analyzed has grown in recent years, it has become increasingly clear that location adds another critical dimension for analysis. With data volumes skyrocketing, new tools are being brought to bear to conduct these analyses and derive additional value from location and geospatial intelligence.
“The availability and applicability of location and geospatial intelligence are booming right now,” said Lynne Schneider, research director, Location and Geospatial Intelligence at IDC. “This is not an entirely new market, but the interest in this area had been largely concentrated with GIS professionals. As the use of location-enabled data moves more mainstream, we see a rapid increase in the need for location and geospatial data, mapping & navigation, location-enabled developer platforms, and location analytics & visualization. There are really exciting developments in this space.”
The report, IDC Innovators: Location and Geospatial Intelligence, 2021 (IDC #US48224121), features five companies offering location and geospatial intelligence solutions that address the growing needs of organizations to gather, curate, analyze, and act on data with a location and/or geospatial component. The five companies are:
- CARTO offers a location intelligence development platform with spatial data and tools that aims to help general data scientists and analysts become better able to utilize and extract value from location-enabled data.
- Capella Space provides high-quality synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery and analytical tools that enable users to monitor geographic areas of interest at scale over time and automates activity and change analysis.
