Increase probability of success
Signature Analyst is a decision support system that delivers enhanced objectivity by discerning subtle yet powerful and actionable insights, maximizing likelihood of success. Combining predictive analytics with spatial information as well as human terrain and social networking elements, the solution delivers effective consequence modeling and improved confidence in decisions for a range of global operational and business challenges.
Learn from past events
Signature Analyst synthesizes relevant information from diverse sources and discerns the causal factors that contribute to the situation or event in question. Learning from past events, the system creates a pattern or GeoSignatureâ„¢ and uses it to project where similar events or situations are likely to occur within your specific area of interest. Since the analysis is based primarily on empirical modeling, Signature Analyst delivers a high level of objectivity that eliminates guesswork and boosts confidence in decisions.

Simplify complex analytics
Signature Analyst reduces the tedium of complex analytical challenges. Its powerful capabilities transcend traditional geospatial methods, allowing fewer analysts to evaluate more data in less time. Designed to handle your most complex and sizable consequence modeling challenge, Signature Analyst can easily process thousands of layers of data and quickly narrow down relevancy through automated variable reduction techniques, including validating suitability of information to a given area of interest.
Simple and complex problems solved with a single tool
Basic challenges where the key elements and relationships between them are well understood (for example, target marketing and retail site selection) are appropriate for deductive modeling. Traditional spatial analysis products primarily adhere to and provide the means for deductive reasoning through data layering techniques. Inductive modeling, where analysis demands a highly data driven approach and objectivity in outcomes are mandated, is appropriate for complex challenges where underlying elements and relationships are not well understood. While Signature Analyst excels at inductive reasoning, thereby eliminating the need for understanding causal factors upfront, it also provides deductive modeling capabilities where speed is critical.
