On the occasion of the release of the reports, Sanjay Kumar, Chief Executive Officer of Geospatial Media and Communications said, “The evolving fabric of geospatial industry now urges technology providers and policy makers to renew their outlook and workflows in order to better tap on to the need of geospatial data consumers for enabling use of spatially-based decision support systems. At the same time, the new-age professional users of geospatial data require deeper insights into how this rapidly evolving technology domain can leverage their output and bring qualitative and quantitative value to their work. For bridging this gap between the stakeholders and to further strengthen application of geospatial data, I am pleased to announce that Geospatial Media is now venturing into commercial market research domain. These analytics will add rich value to the content of our publications, as well as make the interactions during our conferences more meaningful and impactful. Geospatial Media will conduct customer focused studies as well for user-industries, policy advocacy and those companies that fall in periphery of geospatial eco-system. We hope to continue creating value for all those concerned with geospatial data and its usage with our new initiative.”
