Why is “Where” the Most Important Question for Leaders?

Spatial analysis turns complex questions about where into clearer decisions about markets, infrastructure, risk, and the natural world. Spatial analysis means studying data by location to find patterns, relationships and trends. When making sense of a complex world, data and software matter, but the questions you ask matter more. Visionaries, strategists, and leaders answer the most pressing questions using spatial analysis. Where: which habitats are healthiest, which sales regions are most profitable, where power outages happen most, and how cities and forests change over time? How are things connected: trends in rental prices, response times and species migration, and links such as urbanization and flooding, or equipment failure and extreme weather. What if: testing scenarios such as new bus routes, entering a market first, or choosing the best place for a bridge, data center, fire station or wildlife corridor.
