Software Atlas Germany
The Software Atlas Germany is the result of a study that has been published annually by the Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and Innovation Research (ISI) since 2010 . The study was commissioned by Software AG and Software-Cluster .
The aim of the software atlas is to analyze the situation and development of the software and IT service industry on a regional level in Germany in more detail. For this purpose, the development of various indicators such as employment and turnover shares as well as concentration are regularly analyzed in multi-year comparisons. In addition, a new focus topic is highlighted every year.

The atlas is divided into the following chapters:
- Locations of the German software and IT service industry
- Founding activities in the software and IT service industry
- Attachments
- Imagery
- The top 25 locations in Germany
- Definitions and database for the Software Atlas Germany of the software and IT service industry
Top 25 locations in Germany 2011
The rank is based on the relative concentration of the IT industry in the NUT2 regions. Some megacities such as Berlin, Cologne and Hamburg also have a large number of IT companies, but measured against the overall size of the region, their share is so small that they no longer appear in the top 25.

Results
The software and IT service industry in Germany developed into an independent economic factor, the employment growth of which has increased by an average of four percent over the last ten years. The front runner among the top software locations is the Rhein-Neckar district with an employment share of 10.75 percent. The results of the study clearly show that the German software and IT service industry is concentrated in clusters .
