…what is Location Intelligence?
Location Intelligence is the capacity tocombining spatial data with other business data in order to gain critical insights, make better decisions and optimize important processes and applications

Example: thematic maps
Thematic maps are maps that tell a storyabout a place more than merely describe where something is located in space

GeoBI Inititative
GeoBI Initiative is an open community (composed by companies, organizations, and individuals) built upon a common aim:
make open source Location Intelligence adoption pervasive
www.geobi.org
Key Principles
All members shares the following key principles:
• new value proposition
• separation of concerns
• incremental growth
• low TCO

#2 - WHY

www.geobi.org
Internal drivers (there’s the market)
Growing awareness of location-enabled services
Spatial data are pervasive
“80% of all data stored in corporate
databases have a spatial component”
An introduction to GIS: linking maps to databases -
Franklin&Al.
Better business decisions
“Everything is related to everything
else, but near things are more related
than distant things”First law of geography - Waldo Tobler

External drivers (there’s the technology)
www.geobi.org
…but there are also barriers :(

Lack of integration
Strategical barrier Cultural barrier
It’s not easy to balance
cooperation at the technology level
and
competition at the market level
Geo and BI two world coming
together(ignorance & misperceptions)
www.geobi.org
Breaking adoption barriers
GeoBI Initiative has been set up to
• improve the coordination work in the LI area
• disseminate BI & GIS knowledge
• promote BI & GIS integration
• strengthen connections among members
• create a research network
• turn research results into applications.
Break LI adoption/integration barriers
through
integration & evangelization

GeoRreport is a geographical extension of traditional reporting systems.
It allows to plot every kind of dataset directly on a map (i.e. multidimensional data model is not required)
