Summary

CARTO Workflows is a new tool that enables users of all types and skill levels to harness the power of cloud data warehouses, spatial SQL, and advanced spatial analytics. It aims to make geospatial analysis more accessible and scalable for teams with varying expertise levels. The tool provides an analytical modeling interface in a familiar visual format, allowing users to design repeatable analysis using core spatial SQL analysis alongside tools from the CARTO Analytics Toolbox. Workflows can be scheduled to run at specific times or based on changes to data inputs, creating customizable analytics pipelines that can be shared and duplicated. By leveraging cloud data warehouses and spatial SQL, CARTO Workflows enables users to unlock accessible data and insights across their organization, reducing the risk of siloing geospatial data and insights for critical decisions. The tool is currently in a private beta, with plans to release the public beta in the coming weeks, and invites users to participate in the beta evaluation process to provide feedback on its development.
