Welcome to the future home of the North Carolina Economic Development Intelligence System (EDIS) online database.
Here, business decision makers, local governments, and workforce professionals will be able to access a variety of reporting and mapping tools to aid their statewide economic development research.
The results can be customized to meet your needs—and presented in a format that answers a specific question, resolves a specific problem or highlights a future opportunity. For instance, you can:
Profile North Carolina’s counties or regions and compare them to other areas.
- Locate suppliers and purchasers by industry sector.
- Analyze workers by occupation and skills across state regions or the country.
- Compare and contrast education levels across state regions or the country.
- Create maps to display a region’s available workforce, infrastructure and demographics.
The EDIS allows you to print existing reports, generate new reports, and create maps to geographically display your results from the following information areas:
- Buildings and sites
- Demographics
- Workforce
- Retail potential
- Consumer expenditures
- Quality of life aspects
- Crime
- Weather
- Education
- Industry
- Income
- Housing
- Spatial data
