Your database contains more than just names and addresses. Maps and data visualizations can unearth compelling stories.
Maps show funders and constituents areas of need while demonstrating where their support has already made a difference. They reveal community trends and issues that in turn you can address more strategically. Geography and location-based services are changing the way we interpret our world and engage with communities around us.
Chances are, your organization possesses a wealth of spatial data and you may not even realize it.
Azavea has crafted a series of Lunch and Learns to meet your level of technical expertise (or complete lack thereof).
