Abstract

This paper explores the possibilities of adopting Business Intelligence (BI), and Geographic Information System (GIS) to build a spatial intelligence and predictive analytical approach. The proposed approach will help in solving spatial problem which faces decision makers at health sector. The proposed spatial analytical approach will cover three main health planning issues. These issues are tackling health inequalities through geospatial monitor for inequalities in distribution of health units and its services, support decision-making with predictive analytics for common health indicators, and geoprocessing for input layers through dynamic health map and motion charts to support decision making.
