Forecasting of localization in Spain

Abstract

The objective of this study is the forecasting of the trend of logistic curve of location services, from data expressed as Hits /month, provided by the Spanish Genasys. Genasys is a leading provider of location services for mobile devices and solutions for the management of geographic data. In order to build the logistic curve of localization services, has been studied the performance of the logistic curves of the Internet and Mobile. Specifically, we used logistic curves of the global Internet, the Internet in different countries such as Saudi Arabia, the United States and Norway, the network Global Mobile-Wireless and mobile network in Saudi Arabia. Starting from the study of the three basic parameters that characterize the logistic equation of the curves known, we constructed the potential developments of the curve of location services. It was then traced a logistic curve of location services for each of the curves, whose performance is known and which was identified logistic equation that best describes it. At each stage, the choice of the best logistic curve was made considering the standard error and using the Chi Square test, a test of hypothesis testing used in statistics.
