An old chart, but the best one I can find that compares location based (LBS) platforms.

Note the user levels of those platforms that still exist (about half) has multiplied users by a factor of 20 or more, since this chart was created.

While data triangulation is popular for getting coordinate information, new Bluetooth technology platforms such as iBeacon is making Geolocation more effective, quickly, esp. for retail.

The Privacy issues have only multiplied over the last year as the awareness of NSA spying has made people more fearful that all sorts of entities are collecting private data on them, and that mobile technologies are insecure, and not private.

Until recently there was a lack of transparency around what was collected and how.

Privacy concerns are giving pause to some, but widespread adoption seems to be inevitable

Geolocation is vital to the future of Fashion, esp. if you want to sell anything!

Currently, marketers are using two broad location-based techniques with nearly equal frequency Geoproximity and Geoaudiencing

• The geoproximity technique is equivalent to casting a big net near the boat and

hauling in whatever gets caught. Campaigns erect geofences created around

bricks-and-mortar stores and send targeted ads to smartphone users who travel within

the radius. Some providers adjust their geofences for different times of day.

• A geoconquesting campaign is a specific type of geoproximity campaign that

uses location data to target potential customers when they walk into a competitor's

store.

• Geoaudiencing uses layers of location data and data from complementary sources

(offline customer data provided by retailers, Web browsing data, etc.), to build

audience segments of anonymous users, e.g. soccer moms, or white-collar frequent

travelers.

Facebook and Foursquare are the most commonly used Geolocation platforms

iBeacon and Near Field Technologies require Apps to be installed, but other platforms that sift the web for Geo-location notifications and check in data – do not require an app or check in yet still sift a lot of data.

Geofeedia is platform used for police, military and retailers and could be more deliberately used in Fashion (i.e.: Runways)Filter Keyword: Color

There are positive sentiments to classes at FIT too, but less

From the previous slides it becomes clear that ..• Students at FIT that are made

to listen to academic subjects or subjects full of theory tend to be express unhappiness and boredom at level that suggests a fundamental problem with the school curriculum.

• Students at FIT seem happier when engaged in tactile, active pursuits that develop their skills and talents – in other words, much of what they thought they were coming to FIT to learn.

Baruch students do seem more engaged than those at FIT

Its clear the Social Data becomes a lot more useful and real when it is combined with mobile data.

It’s also clear that virtual and real worlds are converging at a rapid pace.
