Geospin employs specialized Big-Data-methods to optimize location-based services, such as carsharing and public transportation. Additionally, Geospin analyses can support a wide range of corporate decisions with a geo-spatial component, such as the optimization of store networks, customer data analysis, and ad campaigns.

As a result, the Geospin analyses enable companies, to effectively handle the demand for their services, to efficiently use company resources, and to avoid investing time and money into trial-and-error techniques.
