A server system is provided that includes a platform server system configured to store platform map data that is geospatially referenced and includes building outline data for one or more buildings, and provide the platform map data to client computer devices. The server system further includes a tenant bounded server system including one or more processors configured to store building floorplan data for a tenant entity, and provide building floorplan data to client computer devices that are authenticated for the tenant entity. The one or more processors of the tenant bounded server system are further configured to receive a set of building floorplan data for a target building included in the platform map data, determine geospatial reference data for the set of building floorplan data by aligning the set of building floorplan data with building outline data of the target building.

Methods, systems, and computer program products detect and manage changes in business data integration (BDI) solutions. BDI solutions include extracting, mapping, or loading source information from disparate sources as targets presented to business applications that consume targets. A method involves detecting changes in a BDI solution, classifying each of the changes based on change severity, analyzing what objects would be impacted by the changes, determining whether the objects impacted by the changes can be change handled without user intervention, and change handling without user intervention all the objects impacted by changes that are not severe. Still further, the method involves committing changes to a metadata repository and creating a deployable checkpoint of the metadata repository where the deployable checkpoint is consistent for all the changes handled in the BDI solution. The modularized metadata describes an end-to-end information flow and underlying dependencies between the source information, mappings, targets and business applications.
