Spatial + Location Intelligence Day Abstracts
Scalable, spatially-accurate Contact Tracing with APEX
This session highlights how to leverage native Oracle Database spatial features to perform contact tracing with an APEX application interface. Based on a real-world customer use case, the spatial analysis correlates both temporal and location analysis to find people that came within a specified distance of a given person at a particular point in time over a user specified time period. It also generates metrics like duration (i.e. how long they were in close proximity). The results can be displayed using reports, maps, or other APEX visualizations.
Dan Geringer is Spatial Solutions Specialist at Oracle, working with Oracle’s largest global customers and partners to solve challenging spatial requirements in a scalable manner. Dan started working with Oracle’s spatial database technologies in 1994, and joined Oracle in 1995 as a key member of Oracle’s spatial development team. Dan’s innovative solutions center on the blending of Oracle’s spatial data processing with Database features for scalability, performance, security, and availability. He presents regularly at Analytics and Data Summit and Oracle OpenWorld conferences. Dan is based near Reston, VA
Carsten Czarski is a member of the Oracle APEX development team, focusing on REST-related features, data loading and the Calendar component. He’s also a pro on Oracle Spatial, Oracle Text, and JSON and XML functionality in the database.
Category 5 Analytics: How OUTFRONT Media Maps Hurricane and Other Risks
OUTFRONT Media has thousands of billboards susceptible to hurricane force winds. How do they calculate the risk and visualize which sites are the most vulnerable? See how Oracle Analytics Cloud, Autonomous Data Warehouse, and Spatial Studio come together to create interactive maps. You’ll see geo-spatial calculations done with open-source hurricane data and OUTFRONT’s data warehouse data in the new Spatial Studio interface. Map layers are then visualized in Oracle Analytics Cloud along with traditional operational data for a full, 360 degree view of the potential business impact of storms in real time. We’ll also show COVID-19 analysis and its impact on different OUTFRONT markets.
Derek Hayden, Architect of an analytics team delivering real business value by allowing internal and external customers to better visualize, explore, and understand data while gaining new insights to make better decisions.
Tim Vlamis, An Oracle Ace and expert in the visualization of data and the design of business analytics strategies, Tim combines a strong background in the application of Oracle-based business analytics and machine learning with extensive experience in business modeling and valuation analysis. Tim co-authored Oracle Press’s book titled, “Data Visualization for Oracle Business Intelligence 11g”. He earned his Professional Certified Marketer (PCM) designation from the American Marketing Association and serves as an Adjunct Professor of Business in Benedictine College’s Traditional and Executive MBA programs. Tim earned an MBA from Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management and a BA in Economics from Yale University.

Analytics+ Day
Fueling Retail Loyalty: Cloud Analytics and Data Warehousing at Drop Tank
Drop Tank manages gas station loyalty technologies and programs for a large network of retail sites across the US. Millions of transactions and diverse POS systems bring complexity of both scale and scope to their cloud-based data warehouse and analytics system. You’ll hear how Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC), Autonomous Data Warehouse (ADW), Oracle Data Integrator (ODI), and Oracle Customer Experience (CX) cloud work together to provide reporting and analytic insight to marketers and program managers. This real-world case study will highlight what worked well, what didn’t, and what the future promises. Drop Tank plans to be able to answer questions like: “What are the demographics of our customers?”, “What buying habits do they have?”, “How do we incentivize customers to participate with greater frequency?”, and ”How can we use analytical insights to generate incremental value?”. Presentation attendees will benefit from hearing a real-world case study of implementing the “full cloud stack” including applications like OLC to OAC to ADWC from a company on the leading technology edge.

2020 Remote Learning Solution through Modern Visualization
Accelerate business insights through data discovery, advanced analytics and comprehensive Visualization delivered through Oracle BI. This session focuses on LAUSD deployment of an advanced, customized Remote Learning Dashboards in Whole Child Platform to track key information related to Distance Learning due to COVID-19 pandemic. These dashboards allow different level of users to quickly monitor device availability to students as well as login/usage online applications data, also to track food distribution and student progress monitoring, information is available over time and by student group.
LAUSD has effectively integrated the analytics to be a part of the operations and not sidelined it as a nice to use tool. A live demonstration on how we adopted a simplified reporting platform for line-of-business users on key metrics, dazzling visualization and infographics delivered through BI dashboards to help improve the decision-making process across the organization.
Learning Objective #1: Understand the business analytics use cases and approach to develop a story through extreme visualization
Learning Objective #2: Making data accessible to everyone via simplified visualization improves transparency and increase productivity
Learning Objective #3: Business Process optimization through Visual navigations and insights to achieve operational excellence
Grace Peng, LAUSD is the largest school district in USA who recently had to undergo a rapid transformation to manage 735,000 students for remote education.
