The companies will be collaborating on a series of projects in Japan to raise awareness of the importance of location intelligence, as well as to demonstrate how and why we should be leveraging this data. The partnership will see X-Locations integrate GeoSpock’s unique spatial big data platform – which offers extreme geospatial scale and the hyper-efficient retrieval of data – into their products to improve speed of query, increase scale capacity, and reduce cost.

Through the utilisation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning, X-Locations accelerates the analysis and visualisation of big spatial data, enabling clients to make smarter decisions across multiple industries, including retail, real estate, manufacturing, and finance.

This partnership demonstrates the commitment of both GeoSpock and X-Locations to furthering next-generation location data analysis and to supporting companies looking to derive meaningful insights from extreme data across sectors including smart city, automotive, retail, media, telecoms, and mobility. As GeoSpock becomes more established in Japan, this partnership is also a testament to the company’s rapid growth.
