The document discusses geospatial business intelligence (Geo-BI). It defines BI as using data analysis to understand business operations and support decision making. Geo-BI adds spatial analysis and maps to allow exploration of spatial relationships in data. About 80% of corporate data has a spatial component, and representing some phenomena on maps can better aid interpretation and decisions. The document introduces open source Geo-BI software from Spatialytics, including Pentaho tools for ETL, OLAP, and reporting integrated with geospatial capabilities.
