We strive to improve the quality of life of people around the world through data-driven decisions by providing methods and solutions for extracting trustworthy knowledge from mobile positioning data.
We develop high-quality technology – methodology, software and expertise – to process mobile positioning data (MPD) for insights on the spatio-temporal behaviour of human beings. Our technology provides the best understanding of the spatial aspects of human society and is used by governments and the private sector in faster, data-driven, and reliable decision-making that brings the world closer to a sustainable existence.
Positium loves data, especially location data. We have some of the best location data specialists in the world, people who think in terms of the whole data model and how it systematically fits together.
We think long-term. We are demanding about the scope and we want to make sure that the solutions are sustainable.
This also shows up in how we approach data quality. We don't always aim for the fanciest data solutions, although it might end up that way. We make sure that the data we provide holds up even when we look back on it 10 years from now.
