As we ease into 2016, we feel reflective about the changes and their magnitude in our industry. For instance, just a few of weeks ago, one of the most popular geospatial initiatives came to an end, with Google deprecating Google Maps Engine (GME). In response, CartoDB created a platform that works with Google Cloud, which offered Google’s clients the option to stay in the same Google ecosystem while providing a seamless transition to the most similar platform
to GME.

Yet it still seems like yesterday when we launched as an effortless tool for turning geospatial data into interactive maps. Since 2015, CartoDB has grown into a location intelligence software solution for deep geospatial analysis and visual data discovery, providing features such as dynamic data filtering, an ability to retrieve complex geospatial queries, available on the cloud and on-premises.

Mobile World Congress is fast approaching and we simply can’t wait to see all the great insights and hard work from the mobile community the world over.
