DIGITAL POSTCODE BOUNDARY MAPS AS THE BASIS FOR YOUR DATA

Worldwide postal areas are geographic boundaries that define the geographic area for each postcode. Digital Postcode boundaries help you to display and analyze spatial areas on a map.

They can easily be matched and attributed with company internal data (e.g. sales figures, sales areas) or SOCIODEMOGRAPHIC DATA and PURCHASING POWER data.

VAST VARIETY OF USES IN MANY ASPECTS OF BUSINESS APPLICATIONS

Our area boundaries provide you with a consistent basis for visualizing your data for various tasks and applications, such as

Sales planning
Sales controlling
Site planning
Expansion planning
Branch network planning
Customer visualization
Predictive analytics
Insurance risk management
Thematic mapping
Social Media Marketing
Postcode look-up tables
Internet applications
Geocoding and Reverse Geocoding

A customer is asked for his or her postal code at the checkout, and this information is combined with population data and purchasing power data from MB-International and visualized on a map.

2 Simple Examples

Where do my customers come from?

In retail, postal boundaries are used to visualize catchment areas. A simple example: the customer is asked for the postal code at the DIY store checkout.

Added value with company-owned data

Many companies have customer data (address data) or proprietary data, such as sales territories or sales figures, with information on the postal code. This data is linked to our digital zip code boundaries and thus enables spatial relationships to be identified in a descriptive manner on a digital map. Additional data such as population, sociodemographic and purchasing power data can be added individually.
