Location Intelligence with R and Mapbox
3 GISP Credit Hours
This 2.5 hour workshop is designed to help you build skills in location intelligence to benefit your business or organization. You’ll use analytical tools like R and Mapbox to identify customer and store locations, perform travel-time analytics, build sales territories, and much more.
In the first hour, you’ll learn how to use Mapbox tools in R for location intelligence, helping you gain skills like the following:
- Address geocoding, including batch geocoding;
- Calculation of travel-times and service areas around locations with isochrones;
- Optimizing routes among multiple locations.
In the second hour, we will complete two example location intelligence projects. The first project will use R and Mapbox tools to analyze the socioeconomic characteristics of travel-time areas around store locations. The second project will introduce you to tools for territory design in R, helping you build balanced territories that take into account travel-times and area demographics.
The last 30 minutes were a live question-and-answer session where participants asked a variety of R, Mapbox, and data science-related questions.
What you’ll get:
- Unlimited access to the workshop recording and chat log for future use.
- A step-by-step annotated tutorial in Quarto format to help you build your knowledge.

This course made it less intimidating to switch from ArcMap to ArcGIS Pro. So glad I attended.

Definitely got me "over the hump" of being able to grasp Python.

These courses are great. I am so pressed for time this is the only way I can acquire extra skills these days. Thank you Eric for all your hard work!

I have attended a number of instructor-led training courses offered by ESRI, which are great in their own right, but the Mastering the ArcGIS Server JavaScript API course gets much more in-depth than they often do. I really liked the recommended reading, they helped expand the terms being covered in lecture to concrete examples that could be related back to my work more directly instead of just having the lecture and exercises alone. I learned a lot andwill recommend this and other GeoSpatial Training courses to the GIS'ers I know. Thanks for putting this course together and offering it.

Really good course material. Very relevant subject matter.
Michael Philp, City of Springville, UT
Very informative and knowledgeable course. It help determine which direction I should take my further GIS and web programming skills.
