AST Locator Enables Businesses to Lower the Cost of Geocoding

July 08, 2009 — AST Locator by Applied Spatial Technology makes geocoding not only easier, but much more affordable. The AST Locator is an easy to use geocoding solution for all areas of business..

Locator standardizes addresses to U.S. postal guidelines, and assigns latitude and longitude coordinates and census geographic IDs, all in a single pass.

Once latitude/longitude coordinates have been attached to addresses, addresses can be displayed as individual points on a map by existing mapping application software like ESRI's ArcView. Geographic analysis can then be performed allowing important observations and decisions to be made in a timely manner.

For example, retail stores, service providers and restaurants need to understand their customers and target markets. They can geocode their data, and bring that data into their existing mapping software to display a map that gives a better overall picture of where these customers are. Knowing the location of customers, partners, and competitors enables business to make informed decisions for the future. Many other examples of applications for business exist making this product very desirable.

In the past, processing speed, the ability to properly assign the correct coordinates, ease of use, and high costs for geocoding software have limited users and their ability to properly leverage this technology. AST Locator changes all that.
