Geospatial mapping services make use of specialized software offered by geospatial software companies for carrying out geospatial surveying, to produce 2D and 3D visualizations of the environment based on location data. Such visualizations help to understand the world around us, take better decisions and predict the future. Nowadays, companies that used to be specialized in offering geospatial mapping services have diversified and offer specialized products and services to many different markets and clients. A broader term for geospatial mapping companies is geospatial intelligence or geospatial analytics companies. The difference between the two is that geospatial analytics companies create additional information products other than mapping to make complex relationships understandable.
