描述性
豐富多彩的展示功能可使數據更加透明和全面。Contour bashboard可用表格,地圖以及圖表來顯示信息,使信息一目了然,便于快速地理解信息。

交互性

面向大眾
由于沒有技術基礎的用戶也能在一段工作時間內掌握Contour BI Portal,因此,允許用它來向大眾發布數據。
集成了GIS
Contour BI Portal提供了功能強大的內置的GIS(地理信息系統),支持主流制造商的地圖(空間信息)格式,如ESRI中的ArcGIS,以及一些其它的格式。
該系統結合矢量層和光柵層,可用來顯示多級地圖,并能以梯度填充的區域,點和圖表的格式來顯示統計和業務信息。
帶有商務智能系統的集成的全功能GIS給出了信息分析的一些新特性。地圖變成了OLAP報表的一部分,OLAP報表的所有交互式操作可以立即顯示在地圖上。簡化了地圖的安裝過程,只要設置了OLAP報表和用戶的下一步操作,數據層可自動地出現在地圖上面。
新穎的統計報表分布系統
Contour BI Portal允許訪問者將報表的代碼或或報表的一部分拷貝到他們的博客或者網站中,并允許他們為其附加上自己的文本。用戶可以創建自己的面板,其面板可以包含來自不同站點的報表元素表格、圖表及地圖。當源報表被更新后,這些報表仍可以與之交互并能夠實現自動同步。
這是散步報表的一種十分新穎的方法,它可以改變我們對互聯網所帶來的機遇的認識。

Descriptiveness
Colorful and diverse presentation options make data transparent and comprehensive. Contour Dashboard displays tables, maps, and charts at a glance for quick understanding of the information.

Interactivity
Unlike traditional methods of publishing data on the Internet, Contour BIPortal allows users to quickly filter data by any set of parameters, change order of fields, instantly updating summaries, .and drilling through the data.
Focusing on the masses
Contour BIPortal is built so that a user without technical skills can master it himself in one working session. This allows using it for publishing data for the general public.
Integrated GIS
Contour BIPortal provides powerful builtin GIS (Geographical Information System), supporting maps (spatial information) formats of leading manufacturers, such as ArcGIS from ESRI, and several other formats.
The system displays multilayer maps, combining vector and raster layers, and displays statistical and business information in the form of gradient-filled regions, points, and diagrams.
Integrated full-featured GIS with Business Intelligence system gives new quality of information analysis. Map becomes part of OLAP report; all interactive manipulation of the OLAP report is immediately displayed on the map. The setup procedure of map is simplified - data layers appear on it automatically, as configured in OLAP report settings and further user actions.
Innovative statistical reports distribution system
Visitors of Contour BIPortal can copy code of a report or its fragment and paste it into their blog or website, accompanied with custom text. Users can create their own panel including elements of the report - tables, graphs, and maps - from different sites. This report will be also interactive and synchronized automatically as the source reports are updated.
This is quite new approach to report distribution, which can change our understanding of the opportunities brought by Internet.
