2 Definition ofbusiness Intelligence Business Intelligence-gain insight from various business data and on a basis of this insight to improve operational, tactical or strategic decisions.

3 LI & BI Business Intelligence gives answers to How? Why? What? Location Intelligence extends Business Intelligence with spatial components to add the 'Where?' LI gives analyst and decision makers a complete overview of all data and therefore a better basis for decisions. Where do we sell which amount of which product? What is the difference in regional purchasing power for my products? Where are sites or regions with the best revenue and why? Which areas can sales efficiency be enhanced? Where do my existing and targeted customers live? Where do potential and ideal customers live? Where are similar spatial or demographic patterns or trends? Where are my SLAs not meet and why? 3

4 Location Intelligence is under utilized In virtually all BI implementations today, location information isn't ignored, but it is pretty much used exclusively as a descriptive attribute or very coarse-grained and often static dimension. Andreas Bitterer, Gartner,

5 The tide isturning Geospatial analysis in BI will double by 2016 (The Data Warehouse Institute, December 2013) Vendors are stepping up BI platforms adding geoanalysis/li GIS tools offering platform-specific solutions Consumer mapping and SaaS Commercial-grade, standardsbased solutions 5

6 Introducing Spectrum Spatial for BI Spectrum Spatial for BI merges location intelligence into enterprise business visualization platforms, delivering highly customized and current, spatially enabled reporting. Business Intelligence (BI) Location Intelligence (LI) -applications, -Geocoding -infrastructure, -Point in polygon -tools, -Thematic mapping -best practices, -Hot spot analysis -analytics and -more -accessibility to information that improves or optimizes decisions and performance. Spectrum Spatial for BI will integrate the two 6

19 Structure of a map layer (Post codes) 2000 A map layer consists of the lines that make up the area outline and tabular attributes for each polygon such as Name, Area, centre point etc. + = Map Intelligence allows us to Join the layer attribute data with data from a spreadsheet to colour regions based on name, or id etc. 19

20 Area Group Layer Each row in the spreadsheet is associated with a separate map polygon (E.g. Post Code) and the polygon is then coloured based on applying a function such as Count, Sum, Min or Max to the values of a fact column (e.g. Value of grants column) for each row associated with the polygon. 20
