Quadkey Framework for Custom Location Insights

Built on Quadkey technology the Mastercard Geographic Insights solution now provides expanded options and functionality for users. Quadkeys which are a new grid identification methodology allow geospatial platforms to pinpoint locations at any spatial scale without the use of latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates.

By integrating Quadkeys a user's view into retail insights is expanded to enable custom areas without pre-defined boundaries in addition to the distinct units previously used (such as block group county zip code).

Greater Consistency with New Spend Index

In this latest version of Mastercard Geographic Insights spend details have advanced from a ranking system to a new Spend Index providing greater clarity of spending patterns and improved insights over time. Along with these additions new metrics have been added to Mastercard Geographic Insights to continue to provide granular insights into spend patterns. These include:

  • Total Accounts Index
  • Average Spend per Account Index
  • Average Frequency (transaction count) per Account Index

The new Spend Index now includes more options for analyzing data over specific time ranges. Instead of viewing scores by month indexes can now be explored by the month week even the day. And with added functionality to create comparisons between distinct time ranges the Mastercard Geographic Insights solution will now make understanding sales and retail growth simpler and more precise than before.
