The Tasks of
Geo-Marketing
Selection of customers within a
certain area
GIS-software is designed for really
easy navigating around the digital map, easy selection of
geographic entities and easy summing up information of a
group of regions.
So selecting customers within a
specific region is - as you may expect - also very easy.
Typically you have a "circular
selection" tool - which allows you to do the
following:
- click at the point where you
want to be the center of your selection
- hold the mouse-key pressed and
drag away from the center (this draws a circle
around the middle-point)
- drag until you have a circle
of the required radius or covered any region
desired
- release the mouse-button
- DONE!
As a standard, any area in the
circular selection is selected if you included the center
of the shape.
