The Incident Analyzer Smart M.App, by Hexagon, won the Wichmann Innovations Award 2016 for Best Software on Oct. 13 at Intergeo in Hamburg, Germany.

The Smart M.App helps a variety of industries visualize trends and identify correlations in mapping incident data.

Incident Analyzer provides an intuitive, user-friendly environment for consuming incident data in a dynamic information experience, according to Hexagon.

With Incident Analyzer and a few mouse clicks, almost anyone can create, manage, disseminate, share, and host a wide array of dynamic intelligence reports that depict meaningful spatial patterns within incident data sets in an interactive fashion, Hexagon said.

The app is useful for professionals in law enforcement, utilities, transportation, government, health and commercial enterprises.
