EASY Connect

• The add-in we developed• Using .Net• Easy to use Wizard• Look and Feel of GfK Wizard• 3 Different Strategies• Redo Action• Autocorrection of datasets• Generic for all types of EASY archives• Generic for all GfK Layers

Strategies

•Three different strategies• Import data into area layer• Import data into point layer• Import data with help of area layer data

•All strategies are combined in one assistant called EASY Connect

Strategy I – Area Layer

“Company wants to see how many customers are located in a certain area.”

Live Demonstration• Nice video demonstrations of all three strategies

are available at our website http://easy.fontysvenlo.org/

• Lets have a short look into the software system.

Strategy II – Point Layer

“Company wants to see all customers in a map. The positioning should be house number detailed.”

Strategy III – Data mining

“Company wants to see all customers with a special attribute on a map. The information of matching terms are not stored atomically and must be searched using full-text.”

•Only the searching strategy is different. Displaying in RegioGraph is equal.

Summary• Delivered on time• Satisfied customer and publisher of RegioGraph• Three sprints• Analyzed the wishes of the customer

• Created use cases• Created three different strategies

Future• Customer meeting after Colloquium…• Analyzing the first steps of data mining

• Adding more functionality• Research of most often Use-Cases• Get more detailed geo-information

• Improving performance for third strategy• Test solution in a authentic environment
