GeOlaPivot Table: a Visualization Paradigm for SOLAP Solutions
Résumé
Pivot tables are the de-facto standard paradigm for
the visualization of data in the context of
multidimensional OLAP analysis. However it is
recognized that they are not suited, in their original
definition, to support spatio-temporal data analysis. In
this paper, we propose the GeOlaPivot Table, an
extension of the pivot tables specifically conceived to
assist decision makers in analyzing spatial information
of data warehouses. Moreover, we present a mock-up
of user interface exploiting this new paradigm, by an
example of application to a multidimensional dataset.
