About Us
Maponics builds and defines polygons such as neighborhood boundaries, ZIP Codes, and school attendance zones that are meaningful at the local level. We help major national companies attract and retain business because locally-relevant boundaries define where people spend their time and money.
Knowing that our expertise lies in polygonal map data allows our customers to focus on what they do best. Licensing Maponics map data, or contracting with Maponics for custom data needs, ensures that our customers deploy their offerings faster, more accurately, and with a lower total cost. We deliver our data in a wide range of formats, including world-class API access.
Our Customers
We work with companies and organizations across many industries, including real estate, search/local search, direct marketing, social networking, mobile, government, and retail.
In real estate, buyers can visit our customers’ websites like Realtor.com, Trulia, Redfin—in fact, half of the Top 10 real estate websites are our customers—and search for properties within specific neighborhoods, school attendance zones, or ZIP Codes.
Local search giants such as Google, DEXMedia, CitySearch, YellowBook USA, and others know how to capitalize on the surge of consumers shopping locally and searching by neighborhood or ZIP Code fits the natural habits of most searchers looking for businesses and services nearby.
Direct marketers like infoUSA, AccuData, and Dunn & Bradstreet use Maponics neighborhoods and postal products to better target more traditional direct marketing.
In social and mobile media, our polygons are used as predefined geofences to help consumers and advertisers connect with friends and/or special offers. Twitter, Loopt, and other industry innovators are our customers.
Local, State, Federal and quasi-government organizations, such as Fannie Mae, States of Washington, Oregon, and Illinois, use various Maponics products to help analyze raw data, set policy, and disperse funds and services. Plus, Maponics is where the United States Postal Service refers its business customers for ZIP Code and carrier route maps and data.
These and many other industries also look to Maponics for customized map data services. In fact, Maponics was founded in 2001 as a mapping services company, providing a full range of customized mapping and GIS solutions. Working with companies in a variety of industries—both large and small—we recognized market needs for specific mapping databases.
Relying on our expertise gives you a far higher ROI than trying to hire staff and construct your own complex map data. Maponics’ experienced team of cartographers and developers have created a unique portfolio of GIS datasets that can be licensed for a wide range of business applications.
