Chapter XIII, Spatial Online Analytical Processing (SOLAP): Concepts, Architectures,
and Solutions from a Geomatics Engineering Perspective, by Yvan B?©dard,
Sonia Rivest, and Marie-Jos?©e Proulx, makes the reader familiar with challenges
related to analyzing spatial data within the so called framework of spatial OLAP.
The chapter outlines the particularities of spatial data and presents the state of the art
of spatial OLAP applications. The main part of the chapter discusses the concepts,
issues, challenges, and solutions related to spatial OLAP. This valuable discussion
results from the experience of the authors with building a commercially available
spatial OLAP system.
