Operations Research

Operations research (OR) is the discipline of applying advanced analytical methods to help make better decisions. GIS is the only decision tool that can perform modeling of complex situations using geography as a key variable. Our team can help transportation and logistics organizations implement GIS-based OR tools to help you perform

• Simulation: Try out approaches and test ideas for improvement with results displayed on maps.
• Optimization: Compare and select the best scenario by incorporating geographic data with your other scientific criteria.
