GapMaps has partnered with Panolytica to deliver an AI-driven consumer segmentation and enrichment dataset called Consumer Compass which is designed to help businesses in Saudi Arabia better understand who their customers are, where they live, and what drives their decisions.

Consumer Compass links address and location data to a comprehensive range of datasets including GapMaps demographics plus lifestyle, socio-economic, retail, media, and technology attributes, delivering 30 proprietary consumer segments across Saudi Arabia at up to 100x100 metre grid resolution.
