Allocate provides Accuracy

The data architecture and software design of Allocate results in the most precise demographic retrieval system available. Allocate quickly, easily and accurately builds custom databases, index base files and demographic reports for over 320,000 standard postal and census geographies. These geographies includes an unlimited number of custom market definitions including carrier routes, yellow pages, radii and any geometric area you can create using any Geographic Information System (GIS).

Unlike any other system, Allocate assigns block group demographics to your custom areas based on capturing individual block centroids and their corresponding population or household counts, ensuring the industry's highest quality for trade area analysis. Allocate databases and reports are built utilizing its proprietary block centroid retrieval technique, regardless of the geography you are using in your map application. Allocate's sophisticated design can determine whether you are requesting data for standard or custom geography, regardless of the GIS you use.

Allocate is Flexible

Allocate provides an unmatched level of flexibility for business professionals, regardless of the application.

Allocate works interactively with your GIS, or as a stand-alone mapless system. Selecting objects in the map and requesting attractive reports is now a three-step process. Creating unique data tables is easy with the Allocate wizard. Allocate also allows you to easily create complex analyses using forms and pick lists. There is even a hook to popular geocoders so you can type an address, specify your radii, pick your custom reports and get results back in seconds.

Robust import/export capabilities allow you to use almost any GIS for generating the mission critical data that can drive your business to higher profits. From simple to complex variable creation, Allocate allows you to build anything from local to national databases with great precision, flexibility and speed. If you need multiple projects processed or have large jobs to run, Allocate's batch utility is ideal.
