Dear Reader,

Geomarketing provides essential support for many of your routine work tasks. For example, this edition of e-News reveals the key role played by geomarketing in the identification of potential new locations. Also, new study results are in, including a comparison of purchasing power across Germany, Austria and Switzerland as well as regional retail turnover prognoses for Germany. You'll soon have another opportunity to talk to us in person about geomarketing solutions: We'll be at the Oracle Spatial User Conference in Washington, D.C. on May 19. We look forward to seeing you there!
