In this paper, we describe how spatial on-line analytical processing (SOLAP), a specific category of business intelligence technology especially adapted to geospatial data, can help to improve the technological side of public participation GIS applications. Based on two simulated cases of realistic scenarios of a public audience, this paper aims at demonstrating the relevance of this SOLAP technology to support and improve the interactive access and analysis of multi-scale, multi-epoch geospatial information (and indirectly public involvement) for an environmental management PPGIS application. © 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
