Spatial Data Warehouse Modelling

چکیده
This chapter is concerned with multidimensional data models for spatial data warehouses. Over the last few years different approaches have been proposed in the literature for modelling multidimensional data with geometric extent. Nevertheless, the definition of a comprehensive and formal data model is still a major research issue. The main contributions of the chapter are twofold: first, it draws a picture of the research area; second it introduces a novel spatial multidimensional data model for spatial objects with geometry (MuSD Multigranular Spatial Data warehouse). MuSD complies with current standards for spatial data modelling, augmented by data warehousing concepts such as spatial fact, spatial dimension and spatial measure. The novelty of the model is the representation of spatial measures at multiple levels of geometric granularity. Besides the representation concepts, the model includes a set of OLAP operators supporting the navigation across dimension and measure levels.

Data warehouse store and provide access to large volume of historical data supporting the strategic decisions of organisations. Data warehouse is based on a multidimensional model which allow to express user’s needs for supporting the decision making process. Since it is estimated that 80% of data used for decision making has a spatial or location component [1, 2], spatial data have been widely...

In this paper, we study the data warehouse modelling used in decision support systems. We provide an objectoriented data warehouse model allowing data warehouse description as a central repository of relevant, complex and temporal data. Our model integrates three concepts such as warehouse object, environment and warehouse class. Each warehouse object is composed of one current state, several p...

Traditional enterprise data warehouse, an integral part of decision support systems (DSS), provides a variety of granularity data to satisfy requirements of different users. It is estimated that about 80% of the information stored in data warehouse is geo-spatial related. However, traditional data warehouse cannot efficiently process spatial data. With the increasing amount of spatial data stor...

We develop a decision support system, based on the data warehousing approach. We define a conceptual object-oriented data warehouse model, which describes the data warehouse as a central repository of relevant, complex and temporal data. Our model integrates three concepts: warehouse object, environment and warehouse class. Each warehouse object representing a source entity, is composed of one ...
متن کاملTowards spatial geochemical modelling: Use of geographically weighted regression for mapping soil organic carbon contents in Ireland
It is challenging to perform spatial geochemical modelling due to the spatial heterogeneity features of geochemical variables. Meanwhile, high quality geochemical maps are needed for better environmental management. Soil organic C (SOC) distribution maps are required for improvements in soil management and for the estimation of C stocks at regional scales. This study investigates the use of a g...
