GIS in Disaster Management Market Drivers, Restraints, Opportunities, and Trends in Coming Years

The rising adoption of the GIS technology in government organizations for emergency management is expected to drive the GIS in disaster management market at a high CAGR of 13.7% during the forecast period (2020–2030). The market stood at $2.3 billion in 2019, and it is projected to reach $9.4 billion by 2030. These organizations are deploying advanced technologies for the effective management of disaster situations, assisting communities in preparing for such mishaps, forecasting emergencies, handling search and rescue operations, and estimating the overall damage.

At present, the adoption of GIS-supported applications is escalating at a significant pace due to the digital transformation of the organizations dealing with disaster and emergency management. GIS aids disaster management agencies in the easy collection of updated data on vulnerable locations and evacuation needs. For example, in September 2019, Esri Inc. introduced an application, named Hurricane Aware, which is compatible with its ArcGIS Living Atlas platform. This application offers information support to the National Hurricane Center and the Joint Typhoon Warning Center for predicting hurricanes.


Globally, the North American region made the most use of such solutions for disaster management during 2014–2019. This was due to the surging need for integrating state-of-the-art technologies in geospatial solutions, increasing government spending on disaster management, and rising concerns over the intensifying losses owing to hurricanes, floods, and tornados. Additionally, the strong presence of GIS vendors and a strategic shift of emergency management organizations toward digital information support the adoption of such solutions in the region.

According to P&S Intelligence, the APAC GIS in disaster management market will witness the fastest growth in the coming years. This will be due to the changing climatic conditions and increasing incidence of natural disasters, including earthquakes, cyclones (called typhoons in the Northwestern Pacific Ocean region), and floods, in densely populated nations, such as India, China, South Korea, the Philippines, and Japan. Resultingly, disaster management agencies in APAC are focusing on the adoption of platforms that can help them in better understanding and responding to such events.

Thus, the growing incidence of natural calamities and rising degree of collateral and financial damage due to them are impelling government emergency management organizations to adopt the GIS technology for disaster management.

BFSI Using Advanced Security Solutions to Protect Data and Financial Assets

Banks and financial institutions are gradually shifting their core applications over to the cloud network, to offer a personalized banking experience, mitigate the risks associated with conventional technologies, improve the operational control of platforms, reduce capital expenditure, and meet the growing need for real-time analysis of high-volume data. However, the deployment of the cloud infrastructure escalates the risk of cyberattacks, as the data is stored at remote locations.  Get the Sample Copy of this Report @ https://www.psmarketresearch.com/market-analysis/bfsi-security-market/report-sample To combat the cyber threat, such institutions are increasingly adopting a range of advanced security solutions. The financial service sector has become a prime target for cybercriminals, as it centers around financial assets and generates massive unstructured data. Moreover, progressive steps such as the adoption of online banking and shift toward digital processes have increased the pro

RF Semiconductor Market a $5.0-Billion Investment Opportunity by 2030

The major factors leading to the rising demand for radiofrequency (RF) semiconductors are the increasing popularity of smartphones, enhancements in the wireless communication technologies, and escalating adoption of the internet of things (IoT). As a result, from $2.1 billion in 2019, the market of RF semiconductor will witness an 8.8% CAGR during 2020–2030 (forecast period), to reach $5.0 billion by 2030. Made of semiconductor materials, such components enable RF communication in an array of sectors. Get the Sample Copy of this Report @ https://www.psmarketresearch.com/market-analysis/rf-semiconductor-market-report/report-sample The material segment of the market is classified into indium phosphate, gallium arsenide, gallium nitride, silicon, and silicon germanium. Among these, during the historical period (2014–2019), the largest share was held by the gallium arsenide category because RF semiconductors made from this material consume less power, account for low power dissipation, ca

How Is Consumer Electronics Sector Helping Silicon on Insulator Market Grow?

Currently, the major players of the silicon on insulator market are taking strategic measures, such as product launches, facility expansions, partnerships, geographical expansions, client wins, and mergers and acquisitions, to gain a competitive edge in the market. For example, in January 2019, Soitec SA extended its collaboration with Samsung Foundry to increase the volume supply of FD-SOIs.  With the new agreement, these companies extended their partnership and secured a high-volume supply of FD-SOI wafers to cater to the surging demand for SOI wafers in consumer, automotive, and internet of things (IoT) applications. The wafer type segment of the silicon on insulator market is categorized into radio-frequency SOI (RF-SOI), power-SOI, imager-SOI, photonics-SOI, fully depleted SOI (FD-SOI), and partially depleted SOI (PD-SOI).  In 2018, the RF-SOI category generated the highest revenue, due to the escalating use of RF-SOI in advanced LTE smartphones and huge investments made in the
