Begining in Oracle Spatial

Hi,
I`m a begining in Oracle Spatial, my university has provided me Oracle Spatial 8.1.5, but not his training. I have obtained the training of Oracle Spatial 8.1.6 but there are different things. Somebody can say to me like obtaining training of Oracle Spatial 8.1.5. Thank you very much.

  • Oracle spatial... how to begin...

    I'm new to oracle spatial and for begining i want to make very simple database with spatial data, and map for that, but it seems to be problem. i have basic information how to insert lines, points, polygons but i don't what with that. I have installed mapviwer but i have problem to run demos. I have seen some examples on net, the sql's are very simple but below examples always i see very complicated maps. So question is how to start with oracle spatial, how to build simple database and map for that, where to begin with reading... Any information is welcome. may be is funny but i'm very confused with oracle spatial... :(
    Thanx

    The best way to start is to
    1) look at the documentation - for 10gR2 start http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/portal.portal_db?selected=1, click on 'Unstructured Data', select "Oracle® Spatial User's Guide and Reference", and work thorugh the examples in Chapter 1 and 2.
    2) Get Ravi's book (http://www.amazon.ca/s/ref=nb_ss_gw?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=oracle+spatial&x=0&y=0) and work through the examples
    Since you are a beginner, I suggest "Pro Oracle Spatial" by Euro Beinat, Albert Godfrind, and Ravikanth V. Kothuri. (Not the 11g one for a newbie, as the first one does a better job in general 2D spatial. The 11g has excellent material, especially 3D and the additional capabilities, but sets aside some of the in-depth basics.)
    3) Go to the Spatial forum, buried in the 'More...' section of the Database category in the Oracle forums.

  • Can not deploy Oracle Spatial Routing Engine on Oracle Weblogic

    I posted my question with Oracle Support, however they directed me to the oracle forums. I am hoping this problem can be resolved here. In any event I am getting the following stack trace (shown below). I am using Spatial Version 11.2.0.1.0, Map Viewer 11.1.1.5.1, and WebLogic 10.3.5.0, and data-set provided by Pro Oracle Spatial for Oracle Database 11g - Apress boos. I have successful in deploying Map Viewer, Geocoder Server, but not the Routing Server.
    Below is the stack trace:

  • Poor performance with Oracle Spatial when spatial query invoked remotely

    Is anyone aware of any problems with Oracle Spatial (10.2.0.4 with patches 6989483 and 7003151 on Red Hat Linux 4) which might explain why a spatial query (SDO_WITHIN_DISTANCE) would perform 20 times worse when it was invoked remotely from another computer (using SQLplus) vs. invoking the very same query from the database server itself (also using SQLplus)?
    Does Oracle Spatial have any known problems with servers which use SAN disk storage? That is the primary difference between a server in which I see this poor performance and another server where the performance is fine.
    Thank you in advance for any thoughts you might share.

    OK, that's clearer.
    Are you sure it is the SQL inside the procedure that is causing the problem? To check, try extracting the SQL from inside the procedure and run it in SQLPLUS with
    set autotrace on
    set timing on
    SELECT ....If the plans and performance are the same then it may be something inside the procedure itself.
    Have you profiled the procedure? Here is an example of how to do it:
    Prompt Firstly, create PL/SQL profiler table
    @$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/proftab.sql
    Prompt Secondly, use the profiler to gather stats on execution characteristics
    DECLARE
      l_run_num PLS_INTEGER := 1;
      l_max_num PLS_INTEGER := 1;
      v_geom    mdsys.sdo_geometry := mdsys.sdo_geometry(2002,null,null,sdo_elem_info_array(1,2,1),sdo_ordinate_array(0,0,45,45,90,0,135,45,180,0,180,-45,45,-45,0,0));
    BEGIN
      dbms_output.put_line('Start Profiler Result = ' || DBMS_PROFILER.START_PROFILER(run_comment => 'PARALLEL PROFILE'));  -- The comment name can be anything: here it is related to the Parallel procedure I am testing.
      v_geom := Parallel(v_geom,10,0.05,1);  -- Put your procedure call here
      dbms_output.put_line('Stop Profiler Result = ' || DBMS_PROFILER.STOP_PROFILER );
    END;
    SHOW ERRORS
    Prompt Finally, report activity

  • Extrude 3D polygons in Oracle spatial

    Dear Everyone,
    I have two data sets of the city footprints imported in the Oracle Spatial already. One is a 2D polygon layer with only x and y, and the other is a 3D polygon layer with z values (the x and y are identical to the first one).
    Now I am trying to extrude the 3D polygon to 3D composites based on the z value. I can successfully extrude the 2D polygons with specifying the ground heights (say sdo_ordinate_array(0)) and topheights (say, sdo_ordinate_array(20.0)).
    However, how to extrude the 3D polygon taking each vertex's z value as the ground heights to an specified top heights is a problem for me. Since, I am very new to use PL/SQL, besides, I am not sure if it is possible to do this.
    Here is the sample data extracted from the sample data:
    select sample.geom.sdo_ordinates from sample2d_polygon sample
    NUMBER(715202.739577727,733492.909091357,715206.759608945,733492.412077086,715208.666575034,733506.889047512,715204.72752625,733507.364066093,715202.739577727,733492.909091357)
    select sample.geom.sdo_ordinates from sample3d_polygon sample
    NUMBER(715202.739577727,733492.909091357,12.4890003204346,715206.759608945,733492.412077086,12.4890003204346,715208.666575034,733506.889047512,12.4540004730225,715204.72752625,733507.364066093,12.4320001602173,715202.739577727,733492.909091357,12.4890003204346)
    Can anybody help me about this
    select sdo_util.extrude(sample.geom, sdo_ordinate_array(), sdo_ordinate_array(20.0), 'true', 0.05) from sample2d_polygon sample, where the first sdo_ordinate_array is the array of corresponding vertex's z value?
    Any suggestions is anticipated and highly appreciated.
    Sincerely
    Jun

    Hi Jun,-
    I hope the following code solves your problem.
    Please also make sure your geometries are valid using sdo_geom.validate_geometry_with_context or
    sdo_geom.validate_layer_with_context for 3D geometries.
    Please let us know if you have questions.
    Best

  • Oracle Spatial in ADF BC

    I would like to know whether the ADF BC can be used in spatial application without using the Oracle Spatial Java Library. Can we manipulate all SDO_GEOMETRY type in our java application using ADF BC alone?

    Hi!
    Thank you both for your effort. Both ways work now, I messed something up at the beginning.
      Logger loLogger = Logger.getAnonymousLogger();
        loLogger.info("method start!");writes to 'default_group~home~default_group~1.log' file in opmn/logs directory, while
      ADFLogger loADFLogger = ADFLogger.createADFLogger("oracle");
        loADFLogger.log(ADFLogger.NOTIFICATION, "method start!");writes to 'log.xml' in j2ee\home\log\home_default_group_1\oc4j directory.
    Now I just have to decide which is better for me ;).

    If the heights and ground heights are all the same in your sdo_number_arrays (as in this case), then you can just specify one number in each array instead of specifying a height/ground height for each vertex.Ok, I see what you mean. This works when I use just the outer ring.

  • Loading shapefiles into Oracle Spatial

    Fellow Oracle Spatiallers!
    Currently we edit Oracle Spatial data by checking data out into a shapefile,
    making our changes off-line, and reloading the shapefile back into Oracle.
    Instead of using the Oracle Spatial supplied tool, we decided to purchase
    a utility called the "Spatial Loader" from a company called Geometry Pty Ltd
    (http://www.geometryit.com). There are a number of reasons why we decided to
    go that way which might become evident from the command line parameters of
    this utility:
    Usage: Shp2Spt [Arguments] [Options]
    OR
    Usage: Java com.geometryit.spatialloader.oracle.AdvancedJavaSpatialTranslator [Arguments] [Options]
    [Arguments] must specify these values:
    -o create
    type of operation to perform
    create creates a new table, must not exist already
    recreate creates a new table, may exist already
    init drops existing table, creates a new one
    append appends data onto existing table
    -f <shape_file>
    the shape file or project to translate
    -l <table,column>
    target table and column for the geometry data
    -D <database>
    target database name
    -u <username>
    username for RDBMS
    -p <password>
    password for RDBMS
    [Options] values are not necessarily required:
    -s <server_name>
    name of server with database
    -port <port_number>
    the port to connect to on the server
    -ufi <column_name>
    specify the name of the UFI field (unique ID)
    -seq <sequence_name>
    specify the sequence to use for the spatial data unique IDs
    -a none
    attributes mode
    none no attributes will be transferred
    all all attribtues will be transfered as found
    file= file containing lines of the form:
    <shape_attribute><space/tab><rdbms_column>
    where
    <shape_attribute> selects the column to be output
    <rdbms_column> name of the column in RDBMS
    -srid <id>
    specify the Spatial Reference ID for the spatial data
    (this must be set to use Spatial Reference Transformations)
    -i [<level>] or -i rtree
    create an index for the generated table
    the <level> parameter is an optional integer
    representing the depth of the quadtree created
    if rtree is specified, the index created will be
    an rtree
    -c <commit_interval>
    number of rows to commit after
    -t <tolerance>
    tolerance value for metadata
    -r none

    1. One step (no conversion to sqlloader form followed by a call to the sqlloader).
    2. The ability to round the coordinates of the shapes in the shapefile by applying
    the XY tolerance values held in the SDO_GEOM_METADATA table.
    This is quite important because our editing package - due to double/single precision
    issues - can actually move coordinates but those movements are sub the precision of
    the actual data. By rounding to the nominate precision we can detect situations where
    no actual change to the shape (and its attributes) was made and thus not create superfluous
    revisions within the database.
    3. It will correctly re-wind the coordinates of the outer/inner shells of polygons. This is
    important as ESRI shapefiles are agnostic on the winding order: an outer shell coordinates
    can be listed in either clockwise or anti-clockwise order.
    4. You can specify the primary key (UFI) column (numeric) and an Oracle Sequence number such
    that each new shape loaded can have its UFI assigned from that sequence.
    Because of this flexibility, and the excellent support (it is a purchasable product) from the
    developers, I can heartily recommend this loader to fellow Spatiallers. It is worth every
    penny I spent on it. Try the free version on their website and if, like me, you like it,
    purchase it!

    Hi Shuan,
    As part of the zip file created for the next training course to be posted for Oracle Spatial on OTN (within the next few weeks) there is a free (unsupported, undocumented) version of a shape to sdo converter. This should work, but it is unsupported. It will create a layer that then needs to be migrated into 8.1.6 format.
    If you need it quite soon send email to [email protected] and I can get it to you.
    Hope this helps,
    dan

  • Oracle Spatial and Oracle Forms

    Hi,
    Does anyone have experience with Oracle Spatial and Oracle Forms?
    I have generated a form, which is based on a view. The view uses the mdsys.sdo_relate operator. Somehow I am unable to get the form to perform (to get one record it takes over 20 minutes). While useing sql-navigator to process the same statement it seems no problem. The query that also uses the view, is then processed in 10 seconds.
    I also noticed that when text-functions like ' lower' of ' upper' are used to query the view, the query is processed within 15 seconds. If I don't use ' lower' or ' upper' it takes a long time (> 20 minutes) to process the query. Is it possible that this causes the bad performance of the form?
    On metalink I have found that forms and spatial do not cooperate because of the pl/sql version that
    forms6 uses. There is no solution presented, does anyone know of a work around?
    My configuration is:
    Oracle 8.1.7 on WIN2K @ PIII-800Mhz 256 Mb memory.
    Formsbuilder 6
    If requested I can post the queries that I have made.
    With regards,

  • Help define the requirements for an Oracle Spatial management tool

    Hi,
    We are developing a tool that, we hope, will be indispensable for all Oracle Spatial and Locator dbas/users. We've released version 1.0, but we need your help to define the requirements for the next version.
    What features would you like to have in a management tool for your spatial databases?
    The features we've got so far:
    1. Viewing of vector data in a map + attributes
    2. Loading from shapefiles
    3. Exporting to shapefiles
    4. Validating metadata, indexes and spatial data.
    We are adding editing of vectors in the next version - basic stuff for add, update and delete.
    But there must be a lot more. What do you find difficult to do in Oracle Spatial/Locator? What would you like in a tool such as this?
    Any feedback either to myself or the forum is much appreciated.
    cheers,
    Andrew
    [email protected]
    PS If you like to have a look at what we have done so far, go to http://www.geometryit.com/products/spatialConsole.php

    Andrew knows what I have asked for but for others to think about and to start
    the ball rolling, here's what they are:
    1. Ability to enter own SQL commands but with PARAMETERS for attributes
    and shapes as in the following examples:
    SELECT ...
    FROM my_spatial_table a
    WHERE a.ATTRIBUTE = :attr
    AND MDSYS.SDO_RELATE(a.shape,:polygon,'mask=anyinteract') = 'TRUE'
    When executed the attribute value is asked for via a input box (data type?)
    and the user is asked to define the SDO_GEOMETRY for the :polgygon parameter via mouse clicks on the screen.
    Similarly, this would work for INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE...
    INSERT INTO my_spatial_table (shape) values(:polygon)
    The data type of an attribute parameter could be determined in two ways:
    a) By querying the Oracle catalog;
    b) By using a "PARAMETERS" command before the query as follows
    PARAMETERS name type [(size)] [, name type [(size)] ...]
    The PARAMETERS declaration has these parts:
    name     The name of the parameter.
    type     The type of the parameter.
    size     The size of the parameter in characters or bytes.
    2. When executing an SQL SELECT statement I would like the tool
    to suggest the HINTS that are needed to improve performance.
    3. Following on from 2, I would like to Tick an option that would return the
    EXPLAIN PLAN that the query optimizer used when executing my query.
    4. The tool has to support ALL Oracle's spatial vector data types.
    5. It would be nice to be able to work with GeoRasters. Since Spatial Console
    imports/exports shapefiles why not the same for rasters. However, the problem
    with supporting foreign data formats is WHERE DO YOU STOP!!!!!
    6. You could allow for the styling of the Spatial Console to be stored in the MapViewer catalogs or use the MapViewer catalogs when styling an Sdo_Geometry if it exists (I note that your tool extracts the SDO_METADATA
    why not the MapViewer metadata as well)?
    regards
    S.

    Reengineering Desktop Thick Workgroups into Web
    Rich Enterprise Clients
    Bryan Hall, Spatial Architect, L-3 Communications
    Jeff Walawender, Senior Software Engineer, L-3 Communications
    Cost cutting requires reengineering spatial solutions to directly address business requirements. But enterprise computing for spatial data has, with even "Web 2.0", required the user to lose the responsiveness and feedback that traditional desktop thick client GIS software has provided. We took a different approach in the re-engineering effort and concentrated on making it work as much like a traditional desktop thick client - while simplifying use, making editing more reliable, and actually speeding up rendering. All this, while only supporting one versioned Oracle Spatial database, and application tier for all users.

  • How do I know if a function is included in Oracle Spatial or in Locator ?

    Hi,
    Is there a document that lists which spatial packages are licensed as Locator and which are licence as spatial?
    Tamas

    Its all listed in Appendix B of the Oracle Spatial Developer's Guide. It varies a little from release to release so you'll need to check the guide for the database release you're on.

  • Oracle Spatial functionality with WFS

    Hi all
    My first post here so be gentle on me ;-)
    This may be an obvious question but here goes ...
    When using a WFS client can you access the full SDO_... SQL functions within Oracle Spatial? I've had a read of the WFS spec and it is all a bit vague on how the queries get passed through to the data store.
    Also with the WFS locking, is this done at the web server level? If so how would that impact on any direct access to the database? A bit dangerous??
    Appreciate any advice on WFS implemtations with a 9i back end. I want to retain the full native Oracle functionality and still deploy via WFS ... a pipe dream??
    Thanks
    Richard

    Thanks for your response Andreas
    Sorry, perhaps I wasn't clear, I realise the WFS client will never directly access the data source, that it is the WFS server that makes the request to the data store, not the client, but can the call be passed through to Oracle as native SQL?
    I think I found the answer in the OGC Filter Encoding Imp Spec where it desribes in great detail the optional filter component of a WFS request. It desribes the CQL filter operators that include some spatial operators. These could, I understand, be translated from CGL and Feature based schema to SQL (in GML?) and relational based schema.
    While I don't think at first glance that the spatial operators in CQL match all the Oracle SDO_ functions they probably go far enough for most normal users.
    Am I on the right track?
    Does anyone know of any work that has been done in this filter translation to SQL and if it has been implemented successfully anywhere.
    I think the locks would still pose a problem, but that's for another day :-)
    Thanks
    Richard

  • Oracle Spatial 8.1.7 r-tree indexes

    I don't think this problem is specific to r-tree indexes vs. quad-tree.
    Even though I specify a tablespace other than the SYSTEM tablespace in Oracle Spatial Index Advisor when creating r-tree indexes, the index is still created in the SYSTEM tablespace. I don't want my spatial indexes in the SYSTEM tablespace!
    select tablespace_name from user_indexes where index_name = 'GPS_IDX';
    TABLESPACE_NAME
    SYSTEM
    Here is the sql statement that Spatial Index Advisor constructed:
    create index gis.gps_idx on gis.gps (geometry) indextype is mdsys.spatial_index parameters ('sdo_indx_dims=2');
    I was not able to issue this sql from worksheet with the tablespace option added. Is there a way to do that?
    In Spatial Index Advisor, if I don't select the geometry column, then the sql is constructed with the tablespace option added, but when I select the geometry column, it removes it from the sql.
    Can anybody shed some light on how to do this?
    thanks
    Dave

    Spatial creates an index entry in the system tablespace but realy creates the spatial index in the tablespace you gave it. To verify it execute the select:
    select table_name,tablespace_name
    from user_tables
    where table_name like 'spatial_table%';
    It will return your table_name plus the spatial index table created for it.
    The table_name will look something like this:
    spatial_table_SX_FL10$.
    spatial_tables beeing your spatial table.
    You can query the same for the indexes built on that previous table.
    select index_name,tablespace_name
    from user_indexes
    where table_name = 'SPATIAL_TABLE_SX_FL10$';
    The two index names would look like:
    spatial_table_sx_fl10$B1
    spatial_table_sx_fl10$B2
    They should be created in the tablespace mentionned in your tablespace clause when creating the spatial index.
    Hope this helps
