Geo Compliance is a methodology utilized by Baseline Business Geographics Inc. that combines asset management and compliance processes, such as field audits and inspections, with Location Intelligence principles. The policy and standards compliance audit process for distributed assets, such as business sites, business units, properties and retail locations is automated to manage the workflow of field resource and inspection activity scheduling, as well as the results analysis, with the utilization of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and mobile technology, creating an efficient management system. Organizations with distributed retailer or site networks achieve store-level compliance with operational, sales and security standards to minimize risks and maximize sales.

When we say “Location Intelligence,” we’re referring to the combination of spatial data (captured via GIS) and business data to gain insight into a specific organization and enhance business operations.

Our solutions use Location Intelligence to analyze relationships within your business data and use maps as visual tools for viewing, communicating and evaluating information.

Baseline has made it easier for our staff to collect information in the field and is saving hours of data entry time when they return to the office. It has vastly improved the efficiency of our staff.

Postal Data

 

6-Digit Postal Code Points

The Canadian 6-Digit Postal Code Points contains the latitude and longitude of the single “most representative point” for each postal code in Canada.

Canadian Postal Codes usually represent one block or apartment building in urban areas and are coded to dissemination area centroids in rural areas or where no reference data is available. This makes them an effective tool for geocoding.

Forward Sortation Area Boundaries/Points(FSAs)

This file represents the geographic polygon boundary file and centroids for Canada’s Forward Sortation Areas (FSAs). FSAs correspond to the first three digits of Canada’s six digit postal code, designating a postal delivery area. This file includes both urban and rural FSAs.

Enhanced Postal Code Conversion File

The Enhanced Postal Code Conversion File (PCCF) provides the location of the Canadian six-digit postal code points and the geographic concordance to all standard levels of Canadian geography —postal, electoral and census. The file enables users to locate customers by using a postal code point. In addition to locating customers, PCCF is ideal for building territories and custom trade areas. There are over 800,000 unique postal code points in the file.
