The Challenge Monetizing a large and varied data set whilst putting safety & security first
Monetizing a resource such as Mastercard’s transaction data comes with many challenges since the data is so diverse in its nature and scope. The principal issues to keep in mind were the absolute safety and security of the data, productizing a wide range of insights, adapting to the diverse needs of a large audience, and the varied insight granularity, which implied the need for aggregation of a vast scope of spatial scales.
