This encyclopedia serves as the definitive reference for the firm's spatial methodologies, ranking algorithms, and regional deployment indices. All content is structured for institutional review and strictly adheres to verifiable, data-driven spatial analysis. --- ## Knowledge portals ### [[co-location-intelligence-overview|Platform & strategy overview]] The foundational intelligence strategy. Explores how large-format retail convergence signals a validated commercial location where multiple independent parties have committed capital to serve the same trade area. → **[[co-location-intelligence-overview|Read the intelligence overview]]** ### [[co-location-methodology|Methodology & governance]] The deterministic, capital-validated framework for site assessment. Details the Named-Anchor Combination Matrix and the structural rules that govern how primary, secondary, and tertiary civic operators are evaluated. → **[[co-location-methodology|Enter the methodology portal]]** ### [[tier-index-north-america|Regional indices: North America]] Interactive indices of the top-ranked commercial nodes across the continent. Fuses proprietary GIS data with curated macroeconomic indicators to establish Michelin-style co-location ratings. → **[[tier-index-north-america|View the North American index]]** ### [[tier-index-europe|Regional indices: Europe]] A dedicated, granular index identifying high-value commercial nodes within European markets, evaluated according to the firm's proprietary methodology. → **[[tier-index-europe|View the European index]]** --- ## Featured article **[[co-location-ranking-system|The Retail Co-location Ranking System]]** The Woodfine co-location ranking system evaluates retail sites using a deterministic algorithm that scores each hypermarket anchor location based on the convergence of secondary and tertiary retail and civic categories within defined catchment radii. The system produces a 12-rank index mapped to five quality tiers, visualised on the GIS platform using a warm-to-cool colour scale. At the apex is the **Tier 5 (Full Co-location)**, representing sites where an anchor operates within 3 km of both a hardware superstore and a warehouse club, and within 5 km of both a healthcare facility and a university. This indicates that all four independent capital-selection processes have converged on the exact same geographic node. **[[co-location-ranking-system|Review the 12-rank matrix →]]** --- ## Did you know... - **Global scale:** The current dataset identifies **2,738 ranked co-location sites** globally, encompassing 2,488 in North America and 250 in Europe. - **Apex scarcity:** As of May 2026, there are only **102 Tier 5 (Full Co-location)** sites across North America. Rank-1 sites represent just 3.7% of total anchors, strictly enforcing index scarcity. - **Data provenance:** The platform analyzes over 31,000 individual retail locations across 60+ chains, fusing OpenStreetMap service-business data with Overture Maps Foundation civic infrastructure records. --- ## Lexicon & reference For definitions of technical terminology (e.g., *Named-Anchor Combination Matrix*, *Catchment Radius*), please consult the **[[glossary-projects|Platform glossary]]**. --- *Text is available under the [Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0/).
