Street-level site selection · all of Greater Glasgow

Where should your business open?

Answer the questionnaire below first: ticket, format, hours, audience. The map and the top-20 table update live as you answer, scoring 331 Glasgow street segments plus every recorded commercial unit against your concept, with an estimated monthly revenue for each. Every figure is labelled: observed at that street, area context, or modelled.

Start with your concept ↓

Step 1 · Start here

Define your concept

Pick one of the 68 presets or start from scratch, then change anything. The map and the top-20 table update live with every answer.

Step 2

The map answers back

Every answer in the Concept tab repaints the map. Zoom right in - past zoom 15 the map shows every individual commercial unit on record, with its own modelled revenue on click.

Markers are street segments. Colour = fit or estimated revenue for your concept. Click one for the full evidence panel. Zoom in past level 15 to reveal every individual commercial unit.

Step 3

Top 20 streets for your concept

The 20 best-matching street segments, sorted by overall fit. The map still shows every segment.

No street open yet

Select a segment on the map or in the top-20 table to open its full evidence panel: demand at your hours, named competitors, rent context, crime, revenue range and the slide report.

Concept trends

Is your concept rising or fading?

Every concept, with two independent signals: venues actually recorded in London over time (category level, from OpenStreetMap history) and what people search for (Google Trends). Sort by growth to spot the risers, or search for a concept.

Sort:

Honest labels: the venue series counts every recorded venue in the concept's category (all cafés, all restaurants...) in the OpenStreetMap extract history - mapper coverage grows over time, so some of the rise is better mapping, not just more openings; it is OBSERVED data with that caveat. The search series is Google Trends interest for a matching keyword, an ESTIMATED index of attention, not shops or sales. Concept-level shop counts per year are not published by any open source at this granularity - where a figure is not available, the row says so instead of guessing.

Rankings & guides

Glasgow, ranked by the model

Data-driven rankings built with the same engine as the map: real station flows, recorded competition, Census context and transparent modelled revenue. Every figure keeps its honesty label.

City-specific rankings for Glasgow are being prepared - London's rankings show the format.

Each ranking is one fixed concept run through the published model over 331 Glasgow street segments. Scores and revenues are MODELLED planning estimates; station flows and venue counts are OBSERVED at named sources; residents and rents are AREA CONTEXT. Use a ranking to shortlist, then walk the street.
