Based on current numbers acquired from Nielsen BookScan, the publishing industry's not-quite-reliable point-of-sale database, sales for "The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair" in the U.S. (not including e-books) look to be around thirteen thousand — by no means meager, but also not mind-blowing, especially considering the enormous run.
Foursquare's current point-of-interest database is good.
Another trend demonstrated by the point-of-sale database was the overall increase in national sales in units of both indoor and outdoor-use permethrin-based pesticides.
In this article we evaluate a national point-of-sale database for permethrin, a pyrethroid pesticide widely used in home pest management, as a novel approach to track over-the-counter sources that contribute to residential pesticide exposures.
While not without its problems, creating a point-of-sale database would provide a helpful snapshot of usage patterns from region to region, allowing us to locate areas of the country that may warrant more detailed investigations and further helping us understand human exposures to home-use pesticides.
We hope to use this point-of-sale database to 1) help detect anomalous trend in regional and seasonal pesticide sales that may warrant further investigation as to the potential causes of the trend; 2) determine the most commonly purchased application types; and 3) examine relative trends in sales between indoor and outdoor use products as well as sales trends between different active ingredients.
He married a genius for efficient distribution and inventory with point-of-sales databases.
When linked with point-of-care databases and other sources of environmental data (including meteorological, transportation, and topographical information), such geospatial intelligence has the potential to rapidly recognize, locate, and monitor disease outbreaks.
