System and method for representation of business information
First Claim
1. A system for generating a map representation of information from a business intelligence (BI) application, the system comprising map data generation means which is arranged to receive BI information from the business intelligence application and to produce map data from the BI information, the map data being usable to generate a map representation of the BI information, which map representation may be displayed together with any base map data.

Abstract
A system and method generates a map representation of information from a BI (business intelligence) application. The BI information is used to generate map data, which in turn is used to generate a map representation. The system and method are arranged to generate the same thematics in a representation as provided by BI application. For example, if the BI information is information on crime in a particular area, the map representation will present the same theme in a spatial frame of reference, using similar metadata (thematic data) to express the theme on the map representation.

- 29. A method for computer generating a map representation of information from a business intelligence application running on a computing system, the method comprising the steps of generating map data from business intelligence (BI) information from the BI application, and utilising the map data to generate a map representation of the BI information, which map representation may be displayed by the computing system together with any base map data.
- 43. A method of analysis of BI information generated by a BI information application running on a computing system, the method comprising computer generating a map representation from BI information data, carrying out a manipulation of the map representation to produce further BI information data that it is returned to the BI information application, and generating further map representation utilising the further BI information data.
