The South & Central America geographic information system (GIS) market is projected to grow from US$ 441.69 million in 2023 to US$ 634.79 million by 2031, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.6% during this period.

Executive Summary and Market Analysis


The GIS market in South & Central America is primarily segmented into Brazil, Argentina, and the Rest of SAM. The region has seen substantial growth in its industrial and infrastructure sectors, driven by increased construction and development of commercial buildings. Governments are actively promoting these developments; for example, Chile's National Construction Association has backed a US$ 26 billion initiative to revitalize the construction industry, which includes significant investments in infrastructure and housing.

In the energy sector, South America’s total energy supply reached approximately 26.9 million terajoules in 2021. Industries such as oil and gas, which often operate in challenging environments like offshore rigs and remote mining sites, require robust GIS solutions for effective data management and communication. GIS technology is essential for tracking assets like pipelines and storage facilities, optimizing maintenance schedules, and enhancing operational safety and efficiency. Thus, the growth in construction and energy sectors is a key driver for the GIS market in the region.
