**About project**

The customer is developing a comprehensive, first-in-class Geospatial Data Warehouse SaaS. Geospatial data is traditionally hard to work with and requires years of experience with highly-specialized tools. These tools are highly fragmented — each solves only a little piece of the puzzle, uses different (often incompatible) formats for data, and exposes it through interfaces not supported by standard analytical tools. The customer aims to unite this fractured world and give its Customers a powerful, convenient instrument to collect, process, store, analyze, and visualize their geospatial data. All to help them uncover the extra value hidden in their data without the undifferentiated heavy lifting of running their own infrastructure or studying rocket science.
