β¦ Synopsis
Extraction-Transformation-Loading (ETL) tools are pieces of software responsible for the extraction of data from several sources, their cleansing, customization and insertion into a data warehouse. In this paper, we focus on the problem of the definition of ETL activities and provide formal foundations for their conceptual representation. The proposed conceptual model is (a) customized for the tracing of inter-attribute relationships and the respective ETL activities in the early stages of a data warehouse project; (b) enriched with a 'palette' of a set of frequently used ETL activities, like the assignment of surrogate keys, the check for null values, etc; and (c) constructed in a customizable and extensible manner, so that the designer can enrich it with his own re-occurring patterns for ETL activities.

Decision support systems (DSS) may be enhanced qualitatively if they are able to also deal with spatial dimensions and measures. Regardless the evident importance of using data warehousing and OLAP in DSS, the incorporation of spatial dimensions and measures enables to locate more efficiently tenden
