GLocation
Data Factory for Socio Technical Systems
About us
GLocation (Glocalization) is a neologism that arises from the composition between globalization and localization. Thinking globally and acting locally. We provide quick solutions for the production of data, in statistical, social and geographical context, precursors of the data factory for socio-technical systems.
We are ideal for digital transformation based on three trends in the information industry:
(1) Low code for the co-creation of missional information systems.
(2) Cloud Platform for the provision of hardware as a service.
(3) Free software to unleash creativity and innovation.
Sociotechnical Principle
Sociotechnical systems are an organizational management model that focuses on its social part and the technical part of the company in a holistic way for the optimization of productive results. Especially in GLocation we have not specialized in the manufacture of data and knowledge under this approach, not only within organizations, but also as an interoperability strategy and generation of synergies for different entities, we apply this concept in the production of data in a context of legal interdependence.
Focus Concept
Data Factory
The infoxication or excess of information produces the lack of interest in the data, from GLocation and our data factory we carry out all the necessary processes to obtain raw data and through pipes carry out the storage in the datalake and datawarehouse for the transformation of data to information .
Cloud Client
Clout Client provides a platform that enables clients to develop, run and manage applications without the complexity of creating and maintaining the infrastructure typically associated with developing and launching an application, Statistical econometric client with R statistical computing GIS Cloud Client with QGIS and Geographic server with Geoserver.
Web Client
The new economic and social conditions challenge the way of managing the territory, in GLocation we are constantly co-creating new realities, where technology plays a central role, we have leveraged on Google Cloud Platform, Low Code technology (Appsheet and Appian) and free software.
Pipeline (Google Cloud Function )
A pipeline consists of a chain of processes connected in such a way that the output of each element in the chain is the input of the next. They allow communication and synchronization between processes, we use GCF to generate pipes that allow the download and integration of data in the Datalake and Datawarehouse.
Datalake (Google Cloud Storage)
The datalake is the repository of raw stored data, we use GCS to be able to create our data system in its natural format.
Datawarehouse Master Data - DataMart (Bigquery - BigqueryML)
It is the digital warehouse where all the information obtained from one or more different sources is stored in order to be processed, we use Bigquery and BigqueryML to perform SQL queries and create models based on Machine Learning for decision making.
Transactional DB(Cloud SQL)
Cloud SQL is a fully managed database service that makes it easy for you to set up, maintain, and manage relational MySQL or PostgreSQL databases on Cloud Platform.
GIS transactional
Transactions are packages of work that make changes to databases. Geographic information system (GIS) databases, like other database applications, must support update transactions that enforce data integrity and application behavior.
Social DB
Decidim Database.
Data Catalog
A metadata management service for cataloging data resources through custom APIs and the UI, providing a unified view of data, no matter where it is located.
Statistical econometric Client
Our R client provides a wide range of statistical tools, linear and nonlinear models, statistical tests, time series analysis, classification and grouping algorithms and graphs in Data lake scenario for socio technical system.
GIS Cloud Client
QGIS is our Cloud GIS client, which operates with the data lake, the data warehouse and our geodatabase in optimal connectivity conditions, this client can scale according to the processing needs.
Geographic server
Geoserver provides the geographic data service under OGC standards. It is the fundamental component for our geo viz implementation.
Low code Misional System - Appian, Appsheet
We build mission systems under the Low-Code paradigm. Appian is the implementation based on iBPM, first web and then mobile app and Appsheet is based on ontologies and its implementation is first mobile and then web. Both implementations are applicable depending on the type of organization and its vision in terms of digital transformation.
Graphic driven visualization
We implement visualization dashboards for business intelligence, performance indicators with different flavors: Tableau, PowerBI and based on free software with d3. All of them have a native connection to our data warehouse.

Citizen participation - Decidim
You can use Decidim in a public or private organisation, with hundreds or thousands of potential participants, such as a city council, an association, a university, an NGO, a trade union, a neighbourhood collective or a cooperative... Thanks to Decidim you will be able to configure spaces for participation (initiatives, assemblies, processes or consultations) and enrich them through the multiple available components (face-to-face meetings, surveys, proposals, voting, follow-up of results, comments and many more).
