Introducing Titan geoserver data container and services

What is Titan geo-server?

• A server that you deploy in your data environment to implement or enrich analytics, and automate data integration.– loaded with open source software, the core of which is

PostgreSQL, PostGIS and pgRouting.– loaded with open datasets for strategic intelligence

geospatial analytics, and process automation.– optionally loaded with analytics modules built with popular

licensed or open-source tools.– optionally loaded with industry data models to help

organize your data and deliver insights rapidly.

Why should we consider?“McLean’s shipping container revolution cut the cost of seabourne trade by a factor of 50 versus loose-cargo stevedoring.” -- Fred Smith, CEO of Fedex Corp. via WSJ.

We aim to do the same for supply chain, logistics and transportation data, analytics and data science.

How? Standardization, automation and technology focused on Freight, not Passengers.

How much time does your company spend cleaning up data? What if we could cut that cost by 98% ?Using detailed geospatial and temporal data in freight flow prediction regression has been shown* to improve R2 values by 10-25%

What answers can Titan provide?It depends upon your perspective ... business, technical or both?

• What is my market share by lane?• What are my most profitable lanes?• How do we best share revenue with

our new partner?

• What are the odds of a new competitor entering this lane or market? If they do, what is the impact to our profit?

• What is the impact of new regulation (e.g. HOS, SOLAS Verified-Gross-Mass)?

Who can use Titan geo-server?• Do you have data integration challenges with supply chain,

logistics or transportation data?• Are you ready to take advantage of big open datasets to

enrich and improve your predictive analytics?• Are you tired of overpaying for spatial analytics and routing

solutions built for people rather than purpose-built for freight (e.g. Google or Bing) ?

Examples – intelligence projects from Lucidata, using Titan geoserver

Flights that traverse volcanic ash clouds risk damaging their engines, and risking the safety of passengers

and crew. Are ATC and airline procedures adequate to avoid this

risk? Let’s run a “what-if” simujlation with the new procedure proposal ...

Competitive Intelligence for LTL trucking on Network Terminal Capacity, as defined by “door

pressure” average loaded or unloaded pounds per door per shift. This was done with “mechanical turk” labor as

business process outsourcing.
