Major trends expected in the forecast period include geospatial big data analytics, mobile geospatial applications, blockchain integration for spatial data security, social media, and geospatial analysis, as well as urban mobility and smart city planning.

The advancement of smart cities is poised to propel the growth of the geospatial analytics market in the coming years. Smart cities, characterized by technology-driven urban areas optimizing resource consumption and controlling activities, benefit from geospatial analytics. This integration aids in smart city planning by providing advanced visualization tools for decision-making, improving site identification, enhancing efficiency, and understanding complex urban processes through geospatial data. According to Otonomo, a data services platform based in Israel, the smart cities market is projected to grow to over $820 billion by 2025 from $410.8 billion in 2020. Thus, the evolution of smart cities serves as a catalyst for the growth of the geospatial analytics market.

The increasing trend of digital transformation is expected to be a driving force behind the growth of the geospatial analytics market in the coming years. Digital transformation involves the integration of digital technologies across various aspects of organizational operations, processes, and activities to bring about fundamental changes in how an organization operates and delivers value. This transformation empowers geospatial analytics by providing essential tools and infrastructure to extract meaningful insights from spatial data, leading to informed decision-making and improved operational efficiency. A survey conducted by O’Reilly Media Inc. in December 2021 revealed that 90% of 2,834 global respondents reported their organizations currently employ cloud-based applications. Looking ahead, 48% plan to shift over half of their apps to the cloud within the next year, with 20% aiming for a complete migration to cloud-based solutions. Thus, the increasing trend of digital transformation is a key driver for the growth of the geospatial analytics market.

Major players in the geospatial analytics market are strategically launching new platforms, such as geospatial analysis platforms, to enhance their market profitability. A geospatial analysis platform is an integrated system that enables advanced analysis and insights from geographic and spatial data. Finland-based ICEYE, specializing in continuous surveillance through synthetic-aperture radar technology, introduced ICEYE Insights in June 2022. This platform provides insurers with near real-time flood impact analysis by integrating ICEYE's flood observation data, supporting data-driven decision-making. ICEYE's synthetic-aperture radar constellation ensures continuous data collection day or night, overcoming cloud cover for reliable flood hazard information.

Major players in the geospatial analytics market are strategically introducing new software solutions, such as geospatial production software, to enhance their profitability. Geospatial production software in the context of geospatial analytics refers to a set of tools and applications designed for processing, analyzing, and visualizing spatial data. In March 2023, Mach9 Robotics Inc., a US-based geospatial solution provider, launched a groundbreaking software platform that generates 2D and 3D maps using mobile LiDAR technology at an impressive 30 times the speed of existing solutions. This platform, powered by AI and computer vision, rapidly transforms large-scale LiDAR data into high-quality engineering models, offering a significant cost advantage. It accelerates the production of CAD and GIS deliverables, allowing engineering and construction organizations to focus on strategic planning rather than laborious data processing, ultimately providing enhanced accessibility to top-notch maps and actionable data for efficient infrastructure management.
