Abstract

According to increase of spatial data, many decision support systems require the fast spatio-temporal analysis. This paper proposes the improved index for efficient OLAP in a spatial data warehouse. The main idea is to use the hybrid index of the extended aggregation R-tree and the sorted hash table. The extended R-tree supports the spatial hierarchy with the level of R-tree. Also, it provides pre-aggregation for fast retrieval of the aggregated value. The sorted hash table is the transformed hash table for supporting the temporal hierarchy. So, it provides pre-aggregation of each temporal unit, year, month and etc. By the proposed hybrid index, an efficient spatio-temporal analysis can be sup-ported since it provides the spatio-temporal hierarchy and the pre-aggregated value.
