How to run scalable routing analysis the easy way [ Video 🎥 ] 

Spatial Spotlight webinar in which we showcase how to run scalable routing analysis in your cloud data warehouse with a workflow built in CARTO.

Cover

Analyzing origin and destination patterns

Aggregate huge datasets to a H3 Index to compare the differences in origins and destinations, using the example of NYC taxi trips.

Cover

Understanding accident hotspots

Transform points to a H3 grid and calculate hotspots, before relating this back to physical cycling infrastructure.

Cover

How to optimize location planning for wind turbines [ Video 🎥 ] 

Example on how to run a wind farm site feasibility analysis, including assessing terrain, demographics and infrastructure with an easy to build workflow.

Cover

How to use GenAI to optimize your spatial analysis [ Video 🎥 ] 

Spatial Spotlight webinar in which we showcase how to use the ML Generate Text component to help us understand the results of our analysis.

Using crime data & spatial analysis to assess home insurance risk

In this tutorial, we'll be using individual crime location data to create a crime risk index. This analysis is really helpful for insurers looking to make more intelligent policy decisions - from customized pricing of premiums to tailored marketing.

Finding stores in areas with weather risks

Leverage CARTO Workflows and Builder to analyze weather risk data from NOAA, to figure out which retail stores locations are exposed to a weather-related risk in the US.

Cover

Creating a composite score for fire risk

Combine climate and historic fire extents to calculate fire risk.

Cover

Real-Time Flood Claims Analysis

Share the potential impact of floods on assets in real-time.

Cover

Space-time anomaly detection for real-time portfolio management

Improve portfolio management for real estate insurers by identifying vacant buildings in areas experiencing anomalously high rates of violent crime.

Estimate the population covered by LTE cells

Leverage CARTO Workflows and Builder to estimate and analyze the population that is covered by telecom network cells based on the LTE technology.

Train a classification model to estimate customer churn

Learn how telecom providers can leverage BigQuery ML to predict customer churn using Workflows.

Cover

Identify buildings in areas with a deficit of mobile phone antennas

Learn how to pinpoint busy locations lacking sufficient mobile phone antennas using CARTO Workflows.

Identify the best billboards and stores for a multi-channel product launch campaign

Select what are the best billboards and retail stores in order to create a targeted product launch marketing campaign across multiple channels: out of home advertising and in-store promotions.

Cover

A no-code approach to optimizing OOH advertising locations [ Video 🎥 ] 

Leveraging Spatial Indexes along with human mobility and spend data to optimize locations for OOH billboards in a low-code environment. While this example focuses on OOH, the approach could be utilized in other sectors such as CPG, retail and telecoms.

Cover

Geomarketing techniques for targeting sportswear consumers [ Video 🎥 ] 

Webinar in which we show how to implement with workflows geomarketing techniques to help businesses target sportsfans & sportswear consumers.

Cover

Measuring merchant attractiveness and performance

In this tutorial, we’ll be scoring potential merchants across Manhattan to determine the best locations for our product: canned iced coffee!.

Calculate population living around top retail locations

Create walk time isolines for selected retail locations. It includes some examples of simple data manipulation, including filtering, ordering and limiting datasets.

Identifying customers potentially affected by an active fire in California

Use CARTO Workflows to import and filter a public dataset that contains all active fires worldwide; apply a spatial filter to select only those happening in California. Create buffers around the fires and intersect with the location of customers to find those potentially affected by an active fire.
