About thinkWhere

is now owned by Idox and is the UK’s leading location data sharing company. We believe that location intelligence can unlock the potential of data to solve real-world problems.

Combining deep domain expertise and a collaborative style of working, we have developed a suite of products and services that transform the way organisations use geographic data.

In 2021, the company was acquired by Idox with a vision to enhance and optimise both the Idox and thinkWhere offerings – the aim being to enable greater use of location data and innovate business activity with our combined current and future customer base.

Strengthening our capabilities under Idox will create more opportunities to provide customers with smarter data and better integration to simplify and improve their operations.

Transform how you use location data
Organisations need to improve efficiency, but struggle with geographic data, which is complex to source, share and maintain. groundMapper solves your biggest challenges around managing geospatial information, like bottlenecks, data silos and paper-based processes.

That’s groundMapper. Discover how well-managed location data can help you make better, future-proofed business decisions, faster – with lower costs, and lower risk.
