Method and system for market performance analysis

摘要

Methods and systems are disclosed for allowing a user to quickly and easily generate market performance analysis reports. The methods and systems use data mart and on-line analytical processing (OLAP) technology to provide users with summary and detailed information without requiring the user to have specific programming skills. In one implementation, the methods and systems may provide a data mart optimized for the auto insurance industry. Such a data mart may contain data pertaining to auto insurance policies, vehicles, operators, coverage, and incident. Data cubes may be used to organize the data in the data mart according to one or more dimensions. Corresponding perspectives may be constructed to allow the user to access the data in the data cubes. Report templates provide a starting point from which the user may modify for dynamic data exploration or dive deeper into the data“on the fly.”
