Increased
Performance |
AnySite
includes enhancements to the AnySite Data Engine
(ASDE) that enable map and report generation to
take place at a minimum of 3 times faster than
version 8.0. For example: A report containing
50+ variables for a three mile ring in central
LA (205,000 people) takes less than 2 seconds.
The same report for a 60-min. drive time around
the Newport Beach office (11.3 million people)
is less than 6 seconds. |
User can
spend more time analyzing the data rather than
retrieving it. |
|
Flexible
Reporting and Thematic Mapping |
Reports in
AnySite can contain information pulled from a
variety of sources. Sources can be from
different database environments and levels of
geography. For example: A report can contain
the following:
1.
From an SQL Database: Point level data
aggregating the count of customers.
2.
From ASDE: block group level data for
any integrated databases (Power Paks).
3.
From MapInfo tables: Traffic volumes,
count of competitors (MIList), shopping centers,
etc
4.
ZIP Code level transaction data.
Retrieval of
non-ASDE resident data is by area apportionment
or geographic centroid. |

information world. One solution. Many uses.
Increases efficiency and enables and optimizes
the value of a client’s proprietary information. |
