- 7. Re Open-Source BI from 2 recent research studies
• Gartner
– Predicts that open-source BI will grow five-fold thru 2012
– Lower cost of ownership, application flexibility, innovation, extensibility /
embedability and scalability make open source applications a perfect alternative for
organizations looking for high performance and value.
– Not only are open-source BI solutions continuing to appeal to cash-strapped
companies, but they are improving functionality and starting to reach the
mainstream market
• Beyenetwork
– Of the respondents claim to have deployed open-source software for reporting,
data integration, or database analytics purposes, and more than a third say they
plan to evaluate open-source for analytics in the near term. Only 12 percent of
respondents say they have no plans to look into open-source BI.
– Open-source rose quickly in the information management market, from almost
nothing a few years ago to community- and commercially supported projects for
every possible use.
– Open source is primarily used by small companies is a myth. Data also shows that
medium and large organizations are doing more evaluations

- 20. Why is location important in
performance management?
• Every dollar spent has a location
• Where are our service delivery points?
• Where are our client markets?
• Where do I recruit specialist skills?
• What areas aren’t we covering?
• How is our accessibility?
• Where will we site our new sites?
• How much assistance has been
offered in my electorate?
• The “where” can be just as important as the what
Copyright 2006 © INTEGEO All Right Reserved 20
- 21. Location Intelligence (LI/GIS)
• Location Intelligence is a mature domain allowing
users perform spatial analysis.
• Create maps from spatial data
• Can highlight spatial patterns in data such as
geographic clusters of incidents
• Capable of advanced visualisations such as hot spot
or gas cloud analysis
• Not very good at analysing non spatial data or
representing data in a non spatial environment.
Copyright 2006 © INTEGEO All Right Reserved 21
- 22. Location becoming pervasive
• Google Maps, Google Earth
• Satellite Navigation
• Personal GPS devices
• RFID tags
• Geocoded Address Reference files
• Expectation that Location will be available in main Business
Reporting context and tied to it
• Easy to do, not require GIS skills or programming
• How do we achieve this??
Copyright 2006 © INTEGEO All Right Reserved 22
- 23. Important Considerations
• Open Standards – OGC
• Open Source Spatial based on OGC
• GIS/Spatial – Web Services OGC standards
based
• Publishing BI spatial analytics as OGC WMS
Copyright 2006 © INTEGEO All Right Reserved 23
- 24. Open Geospatial Consortium
• Development of open
geospatial standards
• Certification of
compliant software
• Advocacy of
Interoperability
Copyright 2006 © INTEGEO All Right Reserved 24
- 25. The Open Geospatial Consortium
• Formed from the Open Grass Foundation in 1994 as a
consortium of US Universities, Government
Departments and the US Army Corps of Engineers.
• Originally driven by the army to help procurement
process.
• Progressed to an aim of sharing geographic content
using open standards.
• Now has 344 companies as members from Computer,
Commercial, Government, Academic and Defence
backgrounds (amongst others).
• Has created standards for many Geo-related topics.
• Has a core set of spatial interoperability standards,
most prominent being the Web Map Service and Web
Feature Service.
Copyright 2006 © INTEGEO All Right Reserved 25
- 26. OGC Standards
• Web Map Services (WMS)
• Web Feature Service (WFS)
• Web Map Context (WMC)
• Styled Layer Descriptor
Copyright 2006 © INTEGEO All Right Reserved 26
- 27. ROI on Open Standards
• 26% overall saving.
– Lower costs for sharing data.
– Low Maintenance and Operation costs outweigh
higher implementation costs.
• Significantly reduce risk.
– Long term support for Standards
– Services Oriented Architecture allows
componentizing future enhancements.

- 28. Geospatial Open Source
• Server environment
• Geoserver
• Robust
• Standards Compliant
Copyright 2006 © INTEGEO All Right Reserved 28
- 29. OGC to link Business Intelligence and Spatial
• Use of OGC standards to provide a generic
connection framework between reporting
tools and geospatial systems.
• Types of data that are combined to support
better program management, gap analysis
and demographic analysis
Copyright 2006 © INTEGEO All Right Reserved 29
- 30. Use of GIS web Services
• Google Maps
• Provides ready access to street and satellite
data worldwide
• Provides geocoding facility
• Scaleable and highly robust
• Most organisations can use at this level
• Large savings in infrastructure management
• Reducing spatial data overload
• Data maintained, styled and update
• Very cost-effective

- 34. Map Intelligence – Spatial Hub
• Provides a platform to drive spatial analysis
from Business Reporting platforms
• Links common business reporting
repositories and tools to spatial analysis
without the need for a spatial datawarehouse
• Utilises commonly available skills in the
market leveraging and extending these to
include spatial presentation and analysis
• Links from BIRT and Microsoft Excel to GIS in
a no code environment
• Direct output of spatial analytics as KML to
facilitate viewing in Google Earth
Copyright 2006 © INTEGEO All Right Reserved 34
- 35. Map Intelligence – Spatial Hub Benefits
• The map is integrated and driven from the
Business Reporting world
• Can be considered just another Chart Type
• No specialist GIS skills required for
development or deployment
• Updates and reflects the current state of the
Business report
• One centrally maintained GIS infrastructure
utilised by all users
• Client Integration Kit for linking other BI
sources or applications
Copyright 2006 © INTEGEO All Right Reserved 35
- 36. Map Intelligence WMS export
• Many Different GIS servers
• Do they support WMS import
• Map Intelligence supports export of BI spatial
layers as interactive WMS
• Allows opportunity to link BI with other GIS
servers
• Example – DEEWR using specific BI tool and
specific GIS platform
• Integrate BI into an existing GIS interface
Copyright 2006 © INTEGEO All Right Reserved 36
- 37. Insert WMS layer from Map Intelligence
Enable data from DEEWR’s
