Nautilytics builds, implements and maintains fully executed custom data visualizations that enable clients
to make impactful decisions more quickly and with a greater degree of confidence.
Our dynamic mapping software platform makes innovative use of geospatial technology to create stunning
2D/3D renderings used across a broad range of industries, namely the agriculture, manufacturing, commercial
real estate, and industrial sectors where demand driven growth requires new construction of property and
plant infrastructure.
In the case of Ghana, Nautilytics was tapped by USAID to create visualization software designed to help
stimulate growth as well as public and private sector investment in the country’s agrarian sector. The
resulting “Investment Opportunity Map” (IOM) detailed in this presentation highlights Nautilytics’ development

DEMAND DRIVEN GROWTH HOBBLED BY SEVERE LACK OF SUPPORTING INFRASTRUCTURE
HARD TO PROJECT CURRENT & FUTURE NEEDS
Ghana’s quickening population growth is advancing at a much faster rate than the rate of current crop
production which is exacerbating the country’s food deficit
While the immediate response is to seek more arable land and/or employ more efficient farming techniques,
Ghana’s agrarian sector is truly challenged by a less obvious limitation…the physical infrastructure required to
support future crop production growth is either non-existent or is incapable of handling the additional volume

GHANA’S POPULATION
“…Ghana has doubled and doubled
again from around 4 million people
to more than 25 million. It is
projected to keep growing to around
50 or even 60 million people by 2050.” — The Guardian, 10/21/11

EXPANDING THE VALUE CHAIN
Under the direction of USAID FinGAP, Nautilytics developed an industry-leading dynamic mapping software
application to forecast not only the growth in crop production of maize, rice and soybeans, but as importantly
to project when and where the investment in the necessary infrastructure will be needed
As a web-based application, the Investment Opportunity Map (IOM), accessible in even low-bandwidth regions,
visualizes the intersection between geo-spatial data and production forecasts to spur future investment by public
and private investors to solve the infrastructure gap via a combination of innovative and features:
