Geomarketing at Work

Geospatial Business

I suspect other bloggers received these e-mails, which suggest some of the newer marketing techniques.

Yesterday I received an e-mail asking for a blog post on a data company in exchange for a data file.

Today my company (not Directions Media) received an e-mail noting an aerial company would be in my state (one of ten listed) and invited me to buy new aerial coverage taken from their Cessna/helicopter (obliques) for a flat fee.

Not all the geo-entrepreneurs are doing Web 2.0 stuff!

That's an interesting story. What kind of data file exactly?

It was a ZIP Code point file for the U.S. Some searching should find the company if you want to take him up on the deal. I would encourage any blogger who does to disclose the transaction.

What's your opinion of the quality of Google's "new" U.S. dataset?
I haven't noticed a difference.
It's better.
it's not as good.
I don't use Google Maps regularly.
