Data Thistle

Supplier Focus – Data Thistle

Data Thistle has the UK’s largest set of live events data. As an integrated data provider to the Visitor Economy Hub this will help users understand the impact of events on all other data trackers.

For example, if a peak in footfall for a day three months ago can be spotted, aligning this to the events calendar can determine what event might have caused that peak.

Equally, the forward-looking intelligence will allow an organisation and its businesses to prepare for a scheduled event, perhaps by putting on extra shifts, buying extra produce, or the council organising extra waste collections.

As well as DataThistle’s events data being valuable to DMO’s at destination level, they also provide services specific to different supply sectors, working with transport networks, accommodation providers and publishing businesses.

Take a look at their website to learn more about the value of events intelligence. https://www.datathistle.com/what-we-do/
