UAE Geospatial Analytics Market Analysis

The UAE Geospatial Analytics Market size is estimated at USD 0.3 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 0.44 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 7.76% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

Geospatial analysis refers to a broad range of activities that emphasize applying various techniques to data comprising geographical or space-related characteristics. The increasing use of GPS devices, technological advancements in the field of GIS technology, recent trends in the integration and convergence of geospatial technologies, the emergence of new business models aimed at leveraging the demand for geospatial information, and the increased application of geospatial analytics in city and town planning are some of the primary factors driving the expansion of the market for geospatial analytics.

  • Geospatial analytics may be helpful in construction. Builders and developers may make educated decisions based on data-driven insights about location, zoning, and available resources using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) tools. GIS technology may help with anything from site selection to project management in home development. GIS, for example, may be used to analyze the terrain of a possible construction site to assess its suitability for development. Furthermore, GIS may assist builders in identifying potential environmental dangers that must be considered during development.
  • In October 2022, Dubai Municipality has secured two contracts with Ordnance Survey, the United Kingdom's national mapping agency, to get access to global geospatial knowledge and assist teams in monitoring activities, construction permits, survey services, executive planning, and geographic information systems. The partnership with Dubai Municipality will last a year, during which we will assess, develop, and implement a sustainable roadmap that will allow the municipality to successfully complete the transformational process and provide better services to its clients in the building and construction sectors, both public and private.
  • A recent case of the use of machine learning for the geospatial analysis includes the Miami-Dade Country. Esri collaborated with NVIDIA to use deep learning and automate the manually-intensive process of creating complex 3D building models from aerial LiDAR data for Miami-Dade County.
  • Geospatial artificial intelligence (geoAI) is an emerging scientific discipline that combines innovations in spatial science, artificial intelligence methods in machine learning (e.g., deep learning), data mining, and high-performance computing to extract knowledge from big spatial data.
  • Implementing new technology, on the other hand, introduces new issues, such as privacy concerns, as in the case of GIS and other mapping technologies. Several times, obtaining geographical data has attracted the wrath of regional privacy and demography legislation. In order for end users to profit, new technologies need to be adopted and integrated into social discourse. 
  • However, several government organizations have been extremely careful regarding data "democratization,", particularly in the case of important equipment. The societal responses to privacy problems that have arisen as a result of the combination of GIS and GPS have been largely mixed. However, there is a general feeling of optimism about the benefits that geospatial data may provide.

UAE Geospatial Analytics Market Trends

Surface Analysis is Expected to Hold Significant Share of the Market

  • Surface analysis, or terrain analysis, focuses on studying topography-related information, such as aspect, volume, slope, hydrology, and other relevant characteristics. Surface analysis is widely used in disaster mitigation and location planning, as they effectively use esoteric mapping to determine the probability of disasters. The general characteristics of a surface (such as slope, aspect, and curvature) are largely used for analyzing the variations in the surface of a study object.
  • For instance, the 'slope' metric is extensively used to define the areas of a region that are highly prone to landslides, whereas 'curvature' is used to determine areas prone to damage. In addition, the slope aspect can be used with the geological structure to assess rock beds that may be useful for planning roads and other constructions, especially in hilly terrains. Surface analysis can be further used for ecological zoning, land suitability classification, and probability mapping. Agricultural suitability and probability of soil erosion are two such examples, where geospatial data may be extensively used to make the best use of the available land, in addition to limited agriculture labor.
  • Furthermore, the 'slope' metric is extensively used to define the areas of a region that are highly prone to landslides, whereas 'curvature' is used to determine areas prone to damage. Furthermore, visibility analysis is conducted to identify areas during location planning, in which case, locations with expansive views are recognized as vantage points. Surface analysis is also widely used during the construction/renovation of large sites, wherein the volume of materials required to be dumped in open areas to avert erosion is determined.
  • APICORP stated that from 2022 to 2026, the ADNOC LNG Fujairah LNG export terminal project, among other energy investment projects in the UAE, had the highest value of nearly eight billion USD
  • Surface analysis can be further used for ecological zoning, land suitability classification, and probability mapping. Agricultural suitability and probability of soil erosion are two such examples, where geospatial data may be extensively used to make the best use of the available land, in addition to limited agriculture labor.

Utility and Communication is Expected to Hold Significant Share of the Market

  • Utility and Communication is a prominent end-user industry that has adopted geospatial analytics. The segment contains mostly energy and power, and communication systems. Analytic techniques used in the sector determine energy consumption profiles of high-resolution buildings, using a method that combines annual energy simulations of various city-specific prototypical assets and geospatial data, from the Geographical Information System (GIS) framework.
  • According to World Nuclear Association, The United Arab Emirates' (UAE) operable nuclear power generation capacity reached nearly 4 gigawatt electrical. in 2023. UAE had two reactors under construction and two operating in that year. The demand for the rise in the electricity would drive the construction of new powerplants and this would propotinatley rise the demand for the geospatial analytics in the region.
  • Communications companies in the region are taking the help of geospatial analytics to determine the location of new cell phone tower installations. Geospatial data obtained from the devices is used to measure signal strength from particular towers in that location, and the range of that signal is used to understand the lack of coverage and signal strength. Various parameters, like population density, road positioning, and customer location, are considered to decide the location of the new cell tower installation.
  • Analysis of geospatial data can also allow communications companies to manage their assets effectively. For instance, a company can analyze geospatial data to understand the power outage vulnerability of a site in the event of a storm, thereby managing its network assets. Furthermore, the company can also understand the deployment of its service assets (such as repair crews) to determine how to position them in case maintenance is needed.
  • The major features that have made Geovisualization absolutely invaluable for today's businesses are thematic mapping, heat maps, drawing and querying, and data points that can be represented both numerically and graphically. Drawing and querying help a business isolate a particular geographic area and learn more about its demographic profile against its current CRM. Geovisualization is being extensively used by ride-hailing start-ups like Uber. Uber's Kepler. gl geospatial tool, which is now an open source, is a geospatial data visualization tool that doesn't require coding, works in the browser, doesn't need to be installed, can render millions of GPS points, and is simple to use.
