- QUOTE: Roll-up: Also Drill-Up. An OLAP function. It is a specific analytical technique whereby the user navigates among levels of data ranging from the most detailed (down) to the most summarized (up) along a concept hierarchy. For example, when viewing the data for the city of Toronto, a roll-up operation in the Location dimension would display Ontario (i.e. the direct concept parent of "Toronto" in the, the concept hierarchy of the dimension "Location"). A further roll-up on Ontario would display data for Canada.
