The growth of big data and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies has had a significant impact on the location analytics market. Given the inflow of data from sources such as social media, mobile apps, and GPS devices, location-based insights can improve decision-making, accelerate processes, and allow better reach for customers. The integration of big data, IoT, and location analytics technologies is driving real-time analytics for actionable insights, thereby driving market growth. 

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) Driven Analytics Solutions: Over the past few years, the domains of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have expanded in tandem. AI and ML-enabled location data are created from data collected location signatures and pattern recognition. Further, technologies are used in developing practical simulators and HD maps for data visualization. Major companies are investing judiciously in AI and machine learning to gain a competitive advantage. 

North America held the dominant share in the location analytics market and is likely to continue so during the forecast period as well. The increasing demand is driving the market expansion for position intelligence and geospatial analytics solutions among many industrial verticals, such as government, defense, retail, and others. For instance, in March 2020, the U.S. Government implemented analytics tools in collaboration with Google LLC, Meta Platforms, Inc. (Facebook), and other digital businesses and medical specialists. To curb the virus's spread, this has enabled organizations to monitor people's social distancing behavior and use location data that they have obtained from individuals.
