The Japan geographic information system (GIS) market size reached USD 360.9 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 765.8 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7% during 2025-2033.
The geographic information system (GIS) is software designed for gathering, managing, and examining data associated with the position of the earth's surface. It integrates various data formats, including digital, photographic and cartographic data, which enables the users to understand topographical information. It is commonly utilized for navigation, environmental impact surveys, disaster management and mitigation, landslide hazard zonation, transportation planning, mapping, accident analysis, and rerouting design. Consequently, it is widely employed in the transportation, oil and gas, mining, power, real estate and defense sectors across Japan.
The escalating demand for advanced solutions across the real estate, transportation, military, and agriculture sectors represents one of the primary factors bolstering the GIS market growth in Japan. Apart from this, governing agencies in the country are investing in smart cities to gain a better insight into geospatial patterns, which is driving the market growth. Moreover, the growing popularity of automated vehicles, coupled with the increasing penetration of IoT-based devices, is positively influencing the adoption of GIS in traffic management, altering road closures, route planning, in-car navigation and predicting traffic. Furthermore, the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak is offering numerous opportunities to leading players as GIS is being used in data integration to prepare, strategize and control the spread of the pandemic across the country.
The competitive landscape of the industry has also been examined along with the profiles of the key players.
