A Taxonomy of SOLAP Operators
نویسندگان
چکیده
Different proposals of SOLAP query languages exist in the literature; however, a taxonomy of SOLAP operators has not been formally defined to date. This paper presents a systematic method for classifying SOLAP operators which combines the elements that constitute a data cube with three application categories: multidimensional, spatial and temporal. Additionally, this paper proposes a set of SOLAP operators along with their syntax. A comparison between the set of operators derived from the proposed taxonomy and the operators from existing SOLAP query languages is carried out. Besides, some implementation results of the proposed operators are presented.

When Spatial Analysis Meets OLAP: Multidimensional Model and Operators
Introducing spatial data into multidimensional models leads to the concept of Spatial OLAP (SOLAP). Existing SOLAP models do not completely integrate the semantic component of geographic information (alphanumeric attributes and relationships) or the flexibility of spatial analysis into multidimensional analysis. In this chapter, the authors propose the GeoCube model and its associated operators...
متن کاملA Foundation for Spatial Data Warehouses on the Semantic Web
Large volumes of geospatial data are being published on the Semantic Web (SW), yielding a need for advanced analysis of such data. However, existing SW technologies only support advanced analytical concepts such as multidimensional (MD) data warehouses and Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) over non-spatial SW data. To remedy this need, this paper presents the QB4SOLAP vocabulary, which suppor...
متن کاملGeoSemOLAP: Geospatial OLAP on the Semantic Web Made Easy
The proliferation of spatial data and the publication of multidimensional (MD) data on the Semantic Web (SW) has led to new opportunities for On-Line Analytical Processing (SOLAP) over spatial data using SPARQL. However, formulating such queries results in verbose statements and can easily become very difficult for inexperienced users. Hence, we have developed GeoSemOLAP to enable users without...
متن کاملA Web-Based Tool for Spatio-Multidimensional Analysis of Geographic and Complex Data
Spatial OLAP (SOLAP) integrates spatial data into OLAP systems, and SOLAP models define spatial dimensions while measuring spatio-multidimensional operators. In this paper, the author presents the concepts of geographic and complex measures that allow integrating geographic and complex information as subjects of analysis in spatial data warehouses. The concept of geographic measure extends the ...
متن کاملQuerying Geographical Data Warehouses With GeoMDQL
Integrating geographical and multidimensional processing has been proposed in several researches in the database literature. One of the most important issues of this process is data querying. However, most of the current approaches do not take into account the use of a query language to make the simultaneous specification of multidimensional and spatial operators available. In this paper, we pr...
