Demographic Data
Population, Age, Purchasing Power, All Information at a Glance
With the help of data such as purchasing power or population data, you can analyze your industry down to the smallest detail. These analyses help you to make the right decision, for example if you are looking for a new branch location or want to check the feasibility of your business idea.
Demographic data support your market analysis
Socio-demography describes the characteristics of a population, the consumers, in defined spatial units such as ZIP Codes, municipalities or raster cells. The most frequently requested key figures are population structure (population), age and purchasing power. But there are hundreds of other characteristics and millions of useful data records.

For Which Analyses Do I Need Demographics?
Demographic data, in addition to your proprietary data, is the basic ingredient for your business analysis. It is like having a good meal: you obviously need the right recipe and cooking utensils. But only if you use quality ingredients, will you be able to make a gourmet meal.
You need demographics for analyses in sales, marketing, controlling and expansion:
- Solid market analysis, market penetration analysis
- Sound sales and target planning
- Effective sales controlling
- Regional sales planning
- Sales territory planning
- Branch network optimization, location analysis
- Voting marketing mix, advertising planning
- Target group analysis (demand)
- Competitor analysis (offer)
- Trend analysis
- Risk assessment
- Category management, e.g. in the pharmacy sector
How Do You Recognize Good Data?
- Good data is updated regularly.
- It is consistent internally, e.g. if you add up all the percentages they equal 100.
- The sources are known and it is transparent how the data is collected.
- Last but not least is of course the competence and reliability of the data provider who collects and processes the data.

Which Data Can I Rely On?
“A common mistake when getting started with market analysis is using as much data as possible”, explains Martin Ortner, WIGeoGIS Consultant, based on her many years of experience. That is not always an effective approach. If the data used is too finely granular, the result may be watered down. So the trick is to choose exactly the right data.
- Which spatial unit is the right one?
- Do I need small-sized, raster cells in a fixed size, or is it enough to analyze the data at a ZIP Code level?
Ideally, you have a partner who knows the current range of demographic data in detail and knows where methodological differences need to be considered. WIGeoGIS helps you make the right selection, from the content to the up-to-dateness all the way to the compatibility with your own data.
Industry data
Industry data is just as valuable for the B2B sector as demographic data is for B2C companies. Because with industry data, you get knowledge and figures about your competitors and market potential. We offer data from all the most common sectors. Find out more about our range of industry data.
Cost Optimization
“Choosing the right data is also a cost factor. The licensing models of the individual market data providers are very diverse and different. Depending on the requirements of the project, prices may differ for the same data quality. The difference may be up to 50 percent. We make sure that you get the best price.”
Marcel Kirrmann, Senior Consultant, WIGeoGIS

FAQ
-
How up-to-date are the regional data and is the data updated regularly?
WIGeoGIS always has the latest data from the different data providers. The update cycles of the individual data providers are very different. Population and purchasing power figures are typically only updated 1x per year, while company data is updated continuously. Official postal addresses can be updated monthly if required.
-
How important is it to use current data?
Sometimes we have to convince our clients that it pays to invest in updating a dataset. For example, 10,000 new apartments, including workplaces, schools, kindergartens and supermarkets, will be built over the next few years in the Vienna urban development area Nordbahnhofgelände. An example that shows that your analyses will only produce accurate results if the data is updated at reasonable intervals. We place great importance on quality when selecting our partners. This includes the regular updating of their data.
-
Is regional data for different countries comparable?
Conclusive transnational geomarketing analysis is only possible if identical attributes exist for each country. The survey methodology and variables, such as the classification by age group for example, must be the same for each country in order to correctly calculate market share and market potential. WIGeoGIS therefore relies on well-known data partners that provide internationally comparable data.
