Abstract

Companies that build data warehouses and use business intelligence for decision-making ultimately save money and increase profit. The warehousing technology proceeds a consolidation of data from a variety of sources that is designed to support strategic and tactical decision making. Data gathered from different sources have to flow in the target area to be analyzed. ETL process is responsible to perform this task. It pulls data out of the source systems and placing it into a data warehouse. However, Geographical Information Systems, pervasive systems and the positioning systems impose moving beyond the traditional warehousing management towards what is called Trajectory Data Warehousing. This later supports trajectory data. Therefore, traditional ETL processes are unable to perform their tasks when the mobility aspect is integrated. Towards this inadequacy, Trajectory ETL process emerges. Few are the works that dealt with. In this paper, we present a taxonomy of works that deeply investigate the ETL process modeling whatever the data kind that the warehousing chain supports, then we express how the trajectory ELT process based on the Model Driven Architecture approach aims at enhancing decision making.
