Semi-Automatic Design of Spatial Data Cubes from Simulation Model Results

摘要

In this paper the authors present a semi-automatic method for designing and generating spatial data cubes in order to visualize and analyze the results of simulation models. In the authors approach users choose their fact of analysis, then the system derives automatically a set of possible measures, dimensions of analysis, and generates the corresponding spatial data cubes. The analysis and visualization of the spatial data cubes are carried out using appropriate SOLAP tools. They also present the SimOLAP system, developed to validate their approach.
