With over 100 members, the OSMA has successfully removed the previous barriers to data sharing restrictions between members and it is estimated that this has led to a threefold increase in the use of spatial data within the public sector in Scotland. The One Scotland Mapping Agreement (OSMA) is an overarching licence agreement that gives local and central government in Scotland access to some of the UK’s Ordnance Survey mapping products.
The focus has shifted from standalone products with limited geo-referencing to the concept of ‘system integration’, wherein, geospatial analytics is being integrated across all the major workflows and solutions within a business. However, as the Global Geospatial Analytics report authors go on to explain there is ‘a gradual shift in market dynamics of geospatial analytics which has transformed the way end users interact with technology. The report by Research and Markets, titled ‘Global Geospatial Analytics Market - Growth, Trends, and Forecasts (2018 - 2023)’ also revealed that, in 2017, Europe was the largest geospatial market, accounting for around 35% of the global market share.
The latest market research has estimated that the global geospatial analytics market was worth around US$40 billion in 2017 and is expected to register a compound annual growth rate close to 18% per year, during the period 2018 to 2023. Central and local government in Scotland are benefiting from a new generation of Cloud data services that are providing easier, more open access to map and geographic data resources explains Faith Clark, Marketing Consultant, Marketing Edge.
