Scaling Spatial Analysis: How KNN Solves the Spatial Density Problem for Large-Scale Proximity Analysis
How we processed 44 million geometries across 5 US states by solving the spatial density problem that breaks traditional spatial proximity analysis
Introducing wkls: A Python Library for Instantly Accessing Global Administrative Boundaries
Why Defining Administrative Boundaries in Spatial Data is Hard If you’ve ever worked with spatial data, you probably needed to define a geographic boundary within which to conduct your analysis. Most of the time, these are administrative boundaries such as cities, states, provinces, countries etc. For instance, if you want to scope your analysis to […]
Location Intelligence with Isochrones: A Complete Guide
Ditch intuition: Use data to optimize location decisions. Where you invest has a long-term impact on a location’s overall profitability. The mantra of “location, location, location” is absolutely still alive. But unlike 20 years ago, you now have the ability to let off-the-shelf data and modern geospatial engines like Wherobots tell you where the ideal physical locations are to invest in, across hundreds of thousands of options, using a few lines of SQL.

Wherobots and PostgreSQL + PostGIS: A Synergy in Spatial Analysis
TL;DR Wherobots (powered by Apache Sedona) and PostgreSQL + PostGIS are complementary tools, not competitors. Use Wherobots for large-scale spatial ETL, processing speed, and distributed analytics. Use PostGIS for data persistence, transactional integrity, and long-term storage. Together, they form a complete spatial data pipeline. At scale, WherobotsDB is up to 317x faster than PostGIS on […]
