Innovative online mapping tool to attract business
The Anchorage Economic Development Corporation (AEDC) recently launched a new online mapping tool to attract and expand businesses and jobs in Southcentral Alaska. The website – AnchorageProspector.com – provides access to customized market research and commercial property listings in Anchorage, Matanuska-Susitna and Kenai Peninsula boroughs. The online program is the first of its kind in Alaska. A goal of the program is to simplify the process of working with regional government when preparing for relocation and expansion decisions.
“Now businesses will no longer have to leaf through reams of Census Bureau reports for demographic information or contact multiple city departments for basic data and documents,” according to Bill Popp, president & CEO of AEDC.
The free site gathers economic, planning, infrastructure, geographic and demographic information often sought by businesses looking to relocate or expand into a ‘one-stop-shop’ business portal on the Web. It allows users to view, create and print maps; find available commercial or business property; and develop custom demographic radius reports.
Commercial realtors are invited to post their properties on the site and Popp will be speaking at community meetings throughout Southcentral in coming months to introduce the new resource and its applications.
