Radial Landscape Mapping (a revolution in brand mapping)
Radial Landscape Map (A revolution in brand mapping)
Knowing how your brand is perceived in the
market place is of paramount importance.
Brand strategists are always keen to
understand how their brand aligns against a
battery of perceptual equity and image
statements.
Existing brand maps generated through
statistical correspondence analysis are
thought by many to be confusing.
Radial landscape mapping is based on a statistical data reduction technique* designed to measure the
extent to which a set of brand personality attributes are associated with a set of known brands. Analysis
results are illustrated using a ‘Radial Landscape Map’ where brand personality attributes are positioned
out around the perimeter depending on their mutual association/correlation. Individual brands are
positioned inside the map.

* Adapted statistical correspondence analysis

In some cases, the brand attributes start to cluster together representing an underlying theme or latent construct.
Brand W: Close to the centre - it is almost equally associated with all the personality attributes, but has a marginally higher association with vibrancy, expert and fun.
Brand X: Has a significantly higher association with fun, vibrant and expert.
Brand Y: is being pulled towards family and caring.
Brand Z: Is regarded as a basic, tired and boring brand.

What is so special about the Radial Landscape Maps?
1. The maps provide a means of visualising reams of cross tabular data on brands.
2. They provide a powerful window into the positioning of brands within a competitive landscape.
3. The maps are designed with simplicity in mind.
4. The maps serve different audiences – researchers, brand managers/strategists/planners, creative and product-experience designers.
5. The maps have multiple applications outside of the immediate brand/attribute space. We can capture large amounts of unstructured social media conversations and represent in a powerful map.
“I was immediately impressed by the elegance of the visual, the ease of understanding it, and the power of the statistical analysis behind it” Leonard F. Murphy Chief Editor & Principal Consultant | GreenBook Research Industry Trends
