Hav­ing a GIS-cen­tric approach for deal­ing with mis­sion crit­i­cal asset is best prac­tice in many indus­tries. The SAP Geo­graph­i­cal Enable­ment Frame­work works as the foun­da­tion to extend busi­ness data, for SAP Busi­ness Suite appli­ca­tions, with geo­met­ric attrib­ut­es. As a frame­work lever­ag­ing the spa­tial capa­bil­i­ties inher­ent in SAP HANA it enables orga­ni­za­tions to devel­op geospa­tial­ly enriched busi­ness objects, such as mas­ter data and trans­ac­tions, and makes them acces­si­ble from with­in SAP appli­ca­tions as well as exter­nal GIS sys­tems. This ses­sion will give you an overview of the capa­bil­i­ties and the respec­tive roadmap, the archi­tec­ture with its inher­ent ben­e­fits, and a live demo of a geospa­tial inter­ac­tion between the SAP Busi­ness Suite and an Esri ArcGIS system.

Key Takeaways:

• SAP Geo­graph­i­cal Enable­ment Frame­work at the cen­ter of geo-enabling SAP busi­ness applications
• SAP HANA is the spa­tial data store
• Sim­pli­fi­ca­tion of the GIS / SAP landscape
