GapMaps Demographic Data

Comprehensive and Granular Global Demographic Data

GapMaps uses known population data combined with billions of mobile device location points to provide highly accurate and globally consistent demographic datasets across Australia, India, South East Asia, Saudi Arabia and North America.

Demographic datasets including the latest estimates on resident and worker populations, census metrics, consuming class and retail spend data are updated annually and available at small grid levels (eg. 150m x 150m) which is essential for location planning feasibility assessments in each region. 

Understand who lives in a catchment, where they work and their spending potential so you can make more informed location planning decisions and run targeted marketing campaigns globally.

Datasets trusted by some of the world’s biggest brands to make site selection decisions

Globally consistent demographic datasets

 

Access to global, high quality demographic datasets across Asia and the Middle East has historically been challenging for brands looking to make location decisions in these regions. GapMaps provides globally consistent demographic data at small area grid levels so you can assess the potential of a market, not only in the major cities, but in local suburbs and regions. 

Our demographic datasets include:

Census Estimates

 

GapMaps provides the latest estimates on Census demographic metrics such as population size, age profile, languages spoken at home, education status, occupation summary and other key statistics. See the table below for the full list of demographic attributes available in each country.

Worker (Daytime) Population Estimates

 

GapMaps uses mobile device data to determine daytime worker populations at small grid levels (excluding devices that have the same daytime and evening location such as home workers, stay at home parents, shops connected to dwellings).

Consuming Class Data

 

Consuming class data identifies those persons able to buy non-essential goods and services other than those that satisfy their basic needs. GapMaps provides consuming class estimates at a city or district level down to grid level which is shown to be highly correlated with store sales for the majority of brands we work with.

Retail Spending Data

 

GapMaps utilises available government data sources and mobile device data to provide retail spending estimates including total spend per capita and spend breakdown across a number of categories including Food & Beverage, Supermarket/Groceries, Apparel, and more.
