Many students choose to live in halls of residence which makes these a pocket of potential customers. Students spend on average 7 times more than the general population online which makes it important to focus optimal delivery systems.
Details about daily journeys to and from lectures and tutorials can start to be understood once student locations are known. This information is now available in a user friendly and up-to-date format.
Geolytix have taken time and care to map all the universities in the UK and have heavily attributed this with further useful and detailed information.
