Una business dashboard (pannello di controllo aziendale) è uno strumento di reportistica che genera viste con indicatori di rendimento che, "a colpo d'occhio", forniscono informazioni analitiche rispetto a particolari obbiettivi e processi aziendali. Le dashboards supportano i manager di medio e alto alto livello a monitorare l'andamento aziendale e a prendere decisioni strategiche. PeakLens è una mobile application di realtà aumentata, sviluppata da un team di ricerca del Politecnico di Milano per identificare le cime delle montagne utilizzando nuove tecniche di visione artificiale e deep learning. Fin dal suo lancio nel dicembre 2016 nel Google Play Store, PeakLens ha attratto il crescente interesse della comunità degli appassionati di montagna (127.000 download su Android a novembre 2017). Questa tesi documenta la progettazione e lo sviluppo della PeakLens Dashboard. Gli obbiettivi della dashboard sono: (1) concentrare i dati spazio-temporali provenienti dalle diverse sorgenti "dell'ecosistema" di PeakLens in un unico posto; (2) generare rappresentazioni grafiche degli indicatori di rendimento per supportare l'analisi. Questi obbiettivi sono stati raggiunti creando una data warehouse come archivio centrale e un’applicazione web per generare grafici e diagrammi interattivi degli indicatori di rendimento. La progettazione della dashboard è stata ottimizzata per i requisiti di PeakLens, ma è abbastanza generale per supportare i bisogni di qualsiasi mobile application caratterizzata da dati di utilizzo geolocalizzati dove un'analisi spazio-temporale è necessaria.

Abstract
A business dashboard is a reporting tool that provides at-a-glance views of key performance indicators (KPI) relevant to a particular objective or business process. Dashboards support the mid and higher management to monitor business trends and make strategic decisions. PeakLens is an outdoor augmented reality mobile app, developed by a research team of Politecnico di Milano for identifying mountain peaks using novel computer vision and deep learning techniques. Since its public launch in December 2016 on the Google Play Store, PeakLens attracted the interest of a growing community of mountain enthusiasts (127.000 downloads on Android as of November, 2017). This thesis work reports the design and implementation of the PeakLens Dashboard. The goals of the dashboard are to: (1) concentrate the spatio-temporal data coming from the different sources of the PeakLens "ecosystem" in one place; (2) generate visual presentations of the key performance indicators to support analysis. These goals have been accomplished by creating a data warehouse as central repository and a web application for presenting interactive charts and diagrams of the KPI. The design of the dashboard has been optimized for the requirements of PeakLens, but is general enough to serve the needs of any mobile application that features geo-referenced and timestamped usage data and where the analysis of the spatial and temporal spread of usage is required.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
