Track Sales Performance On A Map
As we all know, selling is a numbers game, but boy can those numbers be boring, especially when they occupy endless rows of a spreadsheet! That's why when sales managers are organizing and motivating teams, they need access to a tool that imparts key data quickly and reveals performance levels in an instant.

The Advantage Of Using Free eSpatial Datasets, Including Census Data
In an earlier blog, written last year, I explained there was plenty of free location data available, if you knew where to look. Since then, our data team has expanded the datasets built in and ready to use in eSpatial. Why use eSpatial datasets? In truth, much of the data we make available to customers can be sourced elsewhere - if you have the time, that is. However, in order to use it in eSpatial - or (heaven forbid!) any...

However, what if you're not familiar with this established web coloring system? Well, I've come across a great online styling page that, used in conjunction with eSpatial, will help you create the type of map you're looking for. Online tool Colorbrewer 2.0 has a simple interface that allows you to experiment with different hexadecimal colors...

Free Location Data And Where To Find It
I have an interest in music, and when I read, a few days ago, that music sales had increased for the first time in over a decade, I was curious to find out more. The IFPI offered me a report that contained all the music sales data I would ever need regarding 2012. “It is an invaluable source of authoritative data and analysis about the recorded music market globally,” said the blurb on its website. Now I have no doubt that...

Red vs. Blue
Mapping software telling the story of election 2012
The pinnacle of a US Presidential election is the peak of months on end of campaigning, cold-calling and controversy. It is a 24 hour period in which the path of a nation is decided based on a simply astonishing number of factors whittled down to a simple choice between red or blue. Equally astonishing is the number of instant sources by which I, an Irish guy perched on my couch 3000 miles away, can follow the election as the exit...
