Abstract
GIS technology provides collection, storage, analysis and geographic visualization of the spatial data. GIS are designed for decisionmaking
using the map data in areas such as transportation management and land, resources and retail trade, the use of spatial objects, and
so on. GIS technologies are divided into: GIS for general purpose and specialized. GIS for the general purpose include the following tasks:
input, manipulation, management, query and analysis, data visualization. The tasks of «query and analysis» can be resolved with the use of
OLAP and BI-technologies. Consider the solution of these problems in development of a multi-layered intelligent GIS in the field of «green
energy». OLAP technology can to resolve such questions as: “Monitoring of the current status in terms of energy consumption in the GIS,
(consider and analyze the energy consumption at some address on the map), to create the audit of consumers and producers, to assess the
current state of the transition to renewable energy.”
Keywords: GIS technologies, OLAP, SOLAP systems, OLAP cubes.
