# Extract More and Smarter Insights From Mobile Data
Mobile data is a non-traditional alternative data source that yields additional insights that complement the information you receive from traditional sources.
Foot traffic is an alternative data source that is derived from mobile data and can transform a business. It has many uses, from hedge funds and analyzing the flow of commodities around the globe to predicting geopolitical risk and knowing where to open a new retail business in metropolitan centers.
However, working with mobile data and performing analysis on it can be a real challenge. Analysts and data companies alike have real difficulties analyzing data that is both spatial and temporal for the following reasons:
1. The data is big data.
2. The data has multiple properties. It's multi-signal and not just location; it's much more.
3. The data is Spatio-temporal and cannot be handled very well using traditional geospatial software of business intelligence tools.
Register now and join xyzt.ai's CTO [Bart Adams](https://www.linkedin.com/in/barta/), and start.io's Data Science Team Lead, Gal Benshlomo, to learn how retailers, data providers, and analysts can use mobile data and self-service visual analytics technology to make better strategic business decisions and recover from the effects of the pandemic.
