GDN is excited to see technologies that are leveraging the location graph. There are new tools and applications using rich datasets connecting location-based information with social networks, financial markets and consumer activities.
SpaceCurve and Jiwire are two interesting examples:
SpaceCurve geospatial-temporal database and graph analysis tools will enable application developers and organizations to leverage the real-time models required for more powerful geospatial and other classes of applications and to extend existing applications.
JiWire is the leader in connecting advertisers to today’s On-The-Go Mobile Audience, using the world’s largest location-based interactive media channel. JiWire’s platform enables advertisers to identify and deliver ads to audience segments based on a person’s physical location while taking the venue type and brand into account.
