Each cube must contain information about how its columns
correspond to fields in the Esri data. You can add this information
to an existing cube or incorporate this information when you create
a new cube.
The process involves
designating a dimension as containing geographic information (by assigning
the dimension a type of
GEO) and then assigning
Esri spatial map information to levels within that dimension. For
an example, see "Specifying an Esri GIS Map For a Cube Dimension"
in the chapter "Cube Building and Modifying Examples" in the
SAS OLAP Server: User's Guide.
Note: In order to add geographic
information to an existing cube, you must use SAS OLAP Cube Studio.
The OLAP procedure does not support adding the GEO type to an existing
dimension.
