Building Our Story
What does our team do?
We are figuring out how to do something that hasn’t been done before. Curating and creating thousands of data feeds, blending those data feeds together and enriching them with information, and delivering this business critical information to you to solve your problems.
Walk around our office and what would you see? You would see people using a wide mix of data, software and GIS technologies – python, java, ArcGIS, MapInfo, QGIS, Postgres, FME, R, and more. All of these technologies are used in some part of the work that we are doing to design, create, test and deliver our products.
Who are the team members? We are a diverse team with a great mix of experiences, from seasoned Location Intelligence industry veterans to team members wrapping up their advance degrees or heading off to college.
And what do we value in our team? We value people who can master skills, tools and practices, who can work and think independently, and who are connected with the mission of the company to deliver great products to customers.
Your business challenges are unique and you expect unique solutions that meet your needs. We work with you to insure that your data solution is tailored to solve your toughest business problems.
