While DDS made a name for itself in the early years as one of the first providers of spatial data and the corresponding software predominantly with businesses from the geodata and GIS sectors, nowadays small and large organizations from all industries increasingly seek our support when it comes to the planning and execution of marketing activities, spatial cost and efficiency considerations, fleet management or site analysis and territorial planning.

  • Manifold geospatial data from the building coordinates through street networks to administrative and postal boundaries (e.g. Digital Data Streets)
  • Socio-economic data matched to the various geographic levels, e.g. as a basis for geomarketing solutions like designing sales territories, site selection for franchise locations, in Germany and throughout the world
  • Traffic frequencies (FAW FREQUENZATLAS, PTV Validate) as well as data for logistics and fleet management solutions
  • Software and tools, e.g. for Geocoding (MapUse) and market research (TripTracer)
  • Distance matrices (EWS) and special time and distance lists, as well as distance calculation tools
  • Data services – we provide a wide range of services in the area of geospatial data and applications. One of our specialties is creating application specific data bundles from several sources.
