Universal analytical data mart and data structure for same

A method for enabling analysis of integrated data from multiple perspectives, the method comprising:

• processing data from at least one of a plurality of data sources by processing dimensional and fact attributes from each of a plurality of data points, wherein the fact attributes are measurable attributes of the data points and the dimensional attributes are descriptors of the fact attributes with the fact attributes being associated with the dimensional attributes, the fact attributes being configured in a first table and the dimensional attributes being configured in a second table;
• linking the fact attributes back to the data including the plurality of data points from the plurality of data sources;
• and
• providing multiple frames of reference when accessing the first table for one of the multiple frames of reference including at least two of people, places, objects, and events, by providing access to the second table providing descriptors to the accessed first table and access linked provided data including the plurality of data points to provide a framework of data linked to a given fact from at least one frame of reference.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program for enabling analysis of integrated data from multiple perspectives, wherein the program, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to:

• process data from at least one of a plurality of data sources by processing dimensional and fact attributes from each of a plurality of data points, wherein the fact attributes are measurable attributes of the data points and the dimensional attributes are descriptors of the fact attributes with the fact attributes being associated with the dimensional attributes, the fact attributes being configured in a first table and the dimensional attributes being configured in a second table;
• link the fact attributes back to the data including the plurality of data points from the plurality of data sources;
• and
• provide multiple frames of reference when accessing the first table for one of the multiple frames of reference including at least two of people, places, objects, and events, by providing access to the second table providing descriptors to the accessed first table and access linked provided data including the plurality of data points to provide a framework of data linked to a given fact from at least one frame of reference.
