Data Landscape Mapping™

Know what you have, so you can make it work for you

The Problem: Everyone knows where SOME of the data is, but nobody knows where ALL of the data is.

In a typical organization, most stakeholders only know about a fraction of the data sources that impact the business. They often don’t even know where the data they use every day originates. This lack of knowledge limits their ability to use the data to power growth, and leads to assumptions and misconceptions.

It’s as if your data lives on many separate islands and nobody can see what is over their own horizon.

The Solution: Data Landscape Mapping™

Data Landscape Mapping™ from Glymr is a high-value, rapid turnaround process that visually maps and documents all of the data sources and flows in your company. It goes places that software tools can’t, mapping critical data held by individual stakeholders as well as external data sources and platforms that aren’t currently connected to your internal systems. 

The benefits of Data Landscape Mapping™ include:

  • Increased Innovation – Leads to new ways of using the data to drive insights and business processes
  • Reduced Misconceptions – Replaces flawed assumptions about the source and nature of the data
  • Improved Integration – Serves as a valuable resource for system integrations and collaboration with outside providers and partners
  • Accelerated Onboarding – Allows new team members to quickly understand the data that powers the business.
  • Jumpstarts your Knowledge Management program – The Data Landscape Map serves as a valuable input into the Knowledge Management process, identifying many of the key systems and processes that should be documented.

In a matter of weeks your whole team can have dramatically improved knowledge about the data that powers your organization.

Data Landscape Mapping really helped us get a handle on the complexity of our data. Having that map in front of us made it much easier to make strategic decisions, plan improvements and get new team members up to speed.  It was a game changer for the way we talked about our data.
