Send Automated Email Reports from Your Map Analysis

The most effective spatial analysis workflows don't just process data—they deliver results directly to the stakeholders who need them, automatically sending reports, summaries, and notifications without requiring manual distribution.

If your analysis results require manual copying into emails, separate distribution steps, or processes that depend on someone remembering to share outputs, you're missing the delivery automation that ensures stakeholders receive timely information. That's why analysts ask: can we send email reports automatically when our spatial analysis completes so decision-makers always have current information?

With Atlas, you can create automated email delivery that sends analysis results directly from your workflows. No manual distribution, no forgotten updates, no barriers between completed analysis and informed stakeholders. Everything starts with your workflow and email nodes that deliver results automatically.

Here's how to set it up step by step.

Why Sending Automated Email Reports Matters for Stakeholder Communication

Creating automated email delivery enables better stakeholder communication and more reliable information distribution across organizations.

So sending automated email reports isn't just convenient delivery—it's essential communication infrastructure that transforms how analysis results reach decision-makers.

Step 1: Plan Your Email Report Requirements

Atlas makes it easy to design email delivery with clear communication goals:

Identify recipients determining who needs to receive results from each workflow
Define content needs understanding what information stakeholders need in the email body
Plan formatting approach deciding how results should be presented for easy consumption
Consider frequency aligning email delivery with workflow execution schedules
Establish subject conventions creating clear subject lines that help recipients identify and prioritize emails

Once planned, your email requirements guide configuration that serves stakeholder needs effectively.

Step 2: Add Email Nodes to Your Workflows

Next, configure email delivery within your workflow pipelines:

You can configure different email scenarios:

Single recipient delivery sending results to one stakeholder or distribution address
Multiple recipients delivering to several stakeholders with the same content
Conditional delivery sending emails only when certain conditions are met (e.g., issues found)
Follow-up notifications sending different emails at different stages of workflow processing

Each configuration addresses different communication needs while maintaining automated delivery.

Step 3: Compose Email Content and Formatting

To create effective email messages:

Write clear subject lines creating subjects that communicate content and urgency at a glance
Compose message body writing text that summarizes results and provides context
Format with HTML using HTML formatting for professional presentation and readability
Include data summaries adding key metrics, counts, or findings from the workflow processing
Add links and references including links to maps, dashboards, or detailed results for deeper exploration

Email composition creates messages that communicate effectively to busy stakeholders.

Step 4: Include Dynamic Content from Workflow Results

To personalize emails with processing results:

Insert workflow variables including data values, counts, and metrics from processing
Reference attached data pointing recipients to exported files or detailed results
Summarize key findings automatically highlighting important patterns or issues discovered

Dynamic content transforms generic notifications into informative reports.

Step 5: Test and Validate Email Delivery

To ensure emails work correctly:

Test with sample data running workflows to verify email delivery and content
Review received emails checking that messages appear correctly in recipient inboxes
Validate HTML rendering ensuring formatting displays properly across email clients
Check spam handling verifying emails aren't incorrectly flagged as spam
Test error scenarios confirming error notifications work when workflows fail

Step 6: Monitor and Maintain Email Automation

Now that automated email delivery is configured:

Track delivery success monitoring whether emails reach recipients successfully
Gather recipient feedback learning whether email content meets stakeholder needs
Update recipient lists maintaining current distribution as stakeholders change
Refine content over time improving email messaging based on feedback and evolving needs
Coordinate with schedules ensuring email delivery aligns with stakeholder workflows and availability

Your email automation becomes part of comprehensive stakeholder communication that keeps decision-makers informed.

Use Cases

Sending automated email reports from map analysis is useful for:

Operations managers receiving daily or weekly summaries of spatial operations and key metrics
Executives getting automated briefings when analysis reveals important patterns or issues
Field teams receiving location-specific reports relevant to their areas of responsibility
Clients getting scheduled updates on analysis progress and results
Compliance officers receiving automated documentation when required analysis completes

It's essential for any organization where spatial analysis results need to reach stakeholders reliably and promptly.

Tips

Keep emails concise summarizing key findings rather than overwhelming recipients with detail
Use clear subject lines enabling recipients to quickly identify email importance and content
Include action items telling recipients what they should do or decide based on results
Provide context helping recipients understand why they're receiving the email and what it means
Test across clients verifying emails render correctly in different email applications

Sending automated email reports in Atlas enables reliable stakeholder communication without manual distribution.

No email client scripting needed. Just configure email nodes in your workflow and deliver results automatically.
