How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
The founders of iMapData recognized that they could develop
creative solutions to a variety of problems by
combining their expertise in data, geography, economics and computer science. These solutions initially took the form of in-depth,client-directed studies. Each study required them to create an appropriate analytical methodology; identify and acquire relevant data sets; derive actionable conclusions from the gathered information; and present their findings in a comprehensive study.
In the course of preparing these studies, iMapData amassed an impressive library of data. In the late '90s, the founders innovated a web-based data analysis and visualization solution.
