As a technology or data manager working within central banking you will probably recognise the term “Big Data”, as many similar organisations are compiling large data sets for analysis. Mapsimise can add a range of tools for visualisation to the technology mix through connected systems. Using data sets that relate to financial data, commercial entities, administrative data and social media are commonplace. Most organisations may have in-house developed systems that are bespoke. As an organisation you might use Excel or have datasets in CSV format. You may also use commercial solutions like Salesforce or Microsoft Dynamics or have other solutions that are industry specific.

Similar to building charts in Excel, simply designate columns from your Mapsimise data grid as axis for your chart. Values can be shown as a count (for example: count of records by gender) or by sum (for example: totalling opportunity value over x months).
As you move around the map or draw shapes to filter your data, the charts update dynamically. Choose from an array of colour schemes to add a personal touch to your mapped data presentation, and then save the chart in a map view ready to share with your team or the world!
Mapsimise makes working with maps a collaborative and flexible experience. Set up a map with multiple layers of connected or imported data, then all team members can create unlimited views against that map. All shapes, data filters, KML regions, routes and visual themes/effects are saved in a view.

Auto-routing lets you take a selection of filtered records and plot them automatically, optimising by route or respecting the start times from your dataset - allowing you to best-fit your appointments or deliveries to a route and a schedule.
Mapsimise allows you to search worldwide for arbitrary locations by postal code, street name, city, points of interest and more. You can add these locations to a driving route, or create a filter from them (for example: all my customers within 10 miles of LaGuardia)
