Cloud-native GIS for the modern developer & analyst

Aena is the largest airport management company in the world, with over 275 million passengers passing through its 46 Spanish airports last year. Aena wanted to improve navigation for passengers traveling within its airports, visualizing their entire journey and locating key points of interest such as restaurants, shops, toilets, or security controls, as well as the time required to reach the boarding gate.

Moving away from traditional GIS solutions, Aena is now providing a high-quality passenger experience through ‘AenaMaps’, a Location Intelligence solution that was launched to assist passengers during their navigation through their airports. Available via the Aena app on Android and iOS, routes can be followed both visually and by voice.

Fannie Mae’s Duty to Serve team needed a data-driven strategy to support their affordable housing mission, using a wide range of data to learn about the regions with particularly underserved housing markets to ensure they get the most attention - providing insights to researchers and policymakers as collaborators. To do so, they needed to source the right data, create simple publishing workflows, and make insights easy for non-technical stakeholders to understand.

CARTO’s cloud-native GIS platform made it easier to pull in different geospatial datasets, storing and updating at the frequency required by Fannie Mae to ensure relevant and up-to-date data is put in the hands of decision-makers.
