Case Studies

Spatial intelligence. Industry insight. Real-world impact.

Every industry faces complex decisions shaped by location, data, infrastructure and technology.

At Eightysevenpins, we explore these challenges through a spatial and analytical lens, connecting information, uncovering relationships and translating evidence into practical decisions.

From infrastructure and utilities to government and environmental management, our focus is on understanding the challenges unique to each domain and identifying where spatial intelligence and technology can make a meaningful difference.

Different industries. Different challenges. One evidence-led approach.

Explore our domains

Different industries. One evidence-led approach.

Government & Public Sector

Better information. Better public outcomes.

Government organisations make decisions that affect communities, services and the places people live and work. These decisions often require information from multiple departments, systems and data sources.

Spatial intelligence can help connect these perspectives, improve service planning and support evidence-based policy and investment decisions.

Focus: service accessibility, geographic analysis, land use planning, public asset management and location-based decision support.

Transport & Infrastructure

Connecting networks, assets and communities.

Transport and infrastructure networks are complex systems that span locations, jurisdictions and operational environments. Understanding how assets, networks and communities interact is essential to effective planning and investment.

GIS and spatial analytics can help identify network dependencies, assess accessibility, prioritise investment and understand the geographic impacts of infrastructure decisions.

Focus: transport network analysis, infrastructure planning, asset visibility, corridor analysis and investment prioritisation.

Utilities & Energy

Making distributed networks easier to understand.

Electricity, gas, water and telecommunications networks depend on accurate information about assets, service areas, network connections and environmental conditions.

Integrating spatial information with operational and enterprise data can provide a clearer view of network performance, asset exposure and service delivery requirements.

Focus: utility network intelligence, asset management, service coverage, risk assessment and spatial data integration.

Environment & Natural Resources

Understanding the relationship between people, places and the environment.

Environmental decisions require an understanding of how natural systems, human activity and changing conditions interact across landscapes.

Spatial analysis can help bring together environmental datasets, identify patterns and assess the potential implications of different management approaches.

Focus: environmental monitoring, land use analysis, catchment and water management, biodiversity mapping and spatial assessment.

Property, Land & Planning

Turning location into informed decisions.

Land and property decisions depend on more than individual sites. Surrounding infrastructure, planning controls, accessibility, demographics and environmental constraints can all influence the opportunities and risks associated with a location.

Spatial intelligence helps bring these factors together to support more informed planning and assessment.

Focus: land suitability analysis, planning constraints, site assessment, development planning and location intelligence.

Emergency Management & Resilience

Understanding exposure. Planning for uncertainty.

Emergency management requires timely, reliable information about hazards, exposed assets, communities and available resources.

Spatial information can help organisations understand where risks may be concentrated, identify vulnerable locations and support preparedness, response planning and recovery.

Focus: hazard mapping, exposure analysis, critical infrastructure assessment, resource planning and resilience analysis.

Health & Community Services

Understanding where services are needed most.

The accessibility and distribution of health and community services can influence outcomes for individuals and communities. Understanding population patterns, travel distances and service coverage can help organisations identify gaps and evaluate service options.

Spatial analysis can support more informed decisions about service locations, resource allocation and equitable access.

Focus: service accessibility, catchment analysis, population mapping, facility planning and geographic equity.

Telecommunications & Digital Connectivity

Mapping connectivity. Revealing opportunity.

Reliable digital connectivity is essential for communities, businesses and critical services. Understanding where infrastructure exists, where coverage is limited and where future demand may emerge can support better network planning.

Spatial intelligence can help assess coverage, identify underserved areas and evaluate infrastructure investment opportunities.

Focus: coverage analysis, connectivity mapping, infrastructure planning, service availability and geographic demand assessment.
