Introduction to Location3x

We’re excited to announce the launch of Location3x—a new division of Geospatial Training Services dedicated to helping government agencies get more from their GIS investments.

For nearly two decades, we’ve trained over 14,000 GIS professionals through Geospatial Training Services. Now, Location3x brings that same expertise directly to your agency through consulting services and purpose-built GIS products.

Our Focus: Government Agency Success

Location3x specializes in four key areas:

  • GIS Automation — Eliminate manual data processing bottlenecks and reduce errors by up to 90%. Free your team to focus on high-value analysis instead of repetitive tasks.
  • Application Development — User-friendly web, mobile, and desktop applications that make spatial information accessible to everyone in your organization.
  • Data Science & Analysis — Reveal patterns, predict trends, and provide the statistical evidence leadership needs for confident decision-making.
  • Products — Professional-grade tools that solve common GIS challenges.

Introducing Census Studio

Our first product release is Census Studio, a comprehensive ArcGIS Pro toolbox that transforms how you work with American Community Survey data.

No more juggling multiple applications, manual downloads, or spreadsheet gymnastics. Census Studio handles everything from data acquisition to statistical analysis—all within your familiar ArcGIS Pro environment.

What makes Census Studio different:

  • Download Census data with geometry in a single step
  • Browse 20,000+ variables through an intuitive interface
  • Proper handling of margins of error for statistically rigorous analysis
  • Compare time periods with significance testing
  • Join demographics to any polygon layer using population-weighted interpolation
  • Generate professional demographic profile reports
  • Perform hot spot analysis

Built on R’s tidycensus library, Census Studio brings statistical power to your desktop without requiring you to write code.
