What is place intelligence?

Place intelligence means understanding a place as a whole: the businesses in it, the people who use it, and how it performs over time. A shopping centre, a CBD block or a coastal town can each be described this way.

In Australia and New Zealand, the buyers are centre owners and asset managers comparing their centres with competitors, local councils managing CBDs and strip retail and checking whether precinct programmes work, retailers deciding which precincts fit their brand, and tourism teams tracking visitors. Many already use census or property data. What they often lack is a consistent measure of foot traffic for every place they care about.

Huq brings both sides together, with accuracy published as a 19.5% MAPE across published markets, against a 30% healthy threshold.
