The Map Nerd uses GIS (Geographic Information Systems) to help companies make data-driven decisions and display custom maps on websites & presentations.
If you don’t have a full-time data analyst on your staff, let us be your nerd on-demand!
Bonus: the Map Nerd also creates custom map gifts to celebrate special milestones and geographic adventures, like “Where Our Love Has Traveled” or “Our First Road Trip” to commemorate your favorite travel memories.

Real Estate
Professionals

Buying a home, and curious what neighborhood you should target? Looking to sell and target your marketing to your most likely buyers? You’re in the right place: The Map Nerd can give you the data and analytics you need to make the best possible decision on this major investment.
Sure, you’ve got information on the house itself… but what about the neighborhood?

  • What are the closest schools? How are they performing?
  • What will your commute be like? How heavy is the traffic on your new street?
  • How much turnover has there been in the neighborhood? Do buyers stick around, or is it a whole neighborhood of “flippers?”
  • Where are the services you use regularly: from contractors, right on down to dry cleaning?
  • What industries dominate the local workforce?
  • How have similar houses typically performed on the market?

The Map Nerd is your one-stop shop for piece of mind in buying your new home… which means, it’s also your Swiss Army knife to close your potential sale that much quicker.

Home Buyers
& Sellers

You can see it from the list above: The Map Nerd is how you give your clients the full picture. Don’t just sell the house; sell the neighborhood!

  • Get custom, high quality materials that clearly spell out the desirability of any property.
  • Get in-depth analysis on comps and past sales.
  • Break a market down into the smallest possible geographies to see the trends invisible at higher levels.

With the Map Nerd, potential buyers have all the facts in front of them right from the start, giving real estate agents the opportunity to sell the right house to the right person, right away.

Small & Medium Sized Enterprises

Starting and running a small business is hard enough as it is. And as the adage goes, “Location is king.”

Get it right the first time.

The Map Nerd creates concise, easy-to-understand market reports so you can make sure your location is easily accessible to your core customers, and target them intelligently with smart, targeted, demographic and geographic-based advertising. Find holes in the market you can take advantage of, before your competitors do.

For existing businesses, The Map Nerd can use your customer data to show you your “market draw area (MDA)… or, if you don’t have customer data, correctly estimate your MDA.

Why? To avoid cannibalizing your existing customers, and target areas your competitors have missed. Break down the highest concentration of your core customers by ZIP code, so you can target your marketing spend with more precision.

Custom Map
Imagery

Bring it from 3D, back to 2D: The Map Nerd can create professional maps and data visualization, so you don’t have to waste time trying to create the images you need to tell the story you need to tell. Enhance your message and get your point across with clear, well-designed data visualizations.

Let yourself focus on what you do best — The Map Nerd is your secret weapon.

Map Gifts

Are you a fellow Map Nerd? Even better! Get a map to commemorate your travels, whether it’s noting your travels around the world, or simply what houses give out full bars to trick-or-treaters on Halloween.

Better yet, The Map Nerd can create digital maps with your photos tagged to the exact locations they were taken. Facebook ain’t got nothing on this.

Need a map for something completely different? We love it. Challenge us! Get in touch today — let’s chart some new territory together. And if we find any new land, you get first dibs in naming it. It’s only fair if you’re commanding the expedition.
