Geospatial data in Oracle and xMII

Hello xMII team and enthusiasts,
I have had a request to store and retrieve geospatial data into an Oracle database using xMII. The basic idea was to be able to transfer a file containing geospatial data from a mining survey application and store it into an Oracle database. Has anyone handled this type of application? I am interested to know your thoughts on the best way to tackle it.
I understand that Oracle has GIS specific data types like SDO_GEOMETRY (for coordinates), and of course has BLOBs. Can xMII handle these types natively? (I am guessing no, since these are fairly database specific making it difficult to handle generically in JDBC, but would like to confirm if anyone has handled such cases).
I guess stored procedures can be developed to import data from files and insert it into the database. Do you think this would be the best approach?
Sorry for asking multiple questions in one forum post, am trying to lay out my thought processes and these questions have just popped up :).
Thank you in advance for any insight that you can provide.
Kind regards,
Sidney Shek

Also, if you're a developer, you can either create custom "actions" that plug into the xMII business logic services environment or you could wrap the activities in a web service that is callable by xMII.

Geospatial Data in Oracle and Crystal Reports

Does Crystal Reports support the "polygon" datatype found in Oracle 10g? I need to be able to output the coordinates found in this datatype in plain text (or plain numbers as it where) on a report using Crystal Reports.
Thanks,
TC

Hi TC,
I don't recall seeing this type. Best to try and see if you see that field type and if so CR detects as a string or not. Typically if we don't recognize the type it gets labeled as a string.
Thank you

Real-Time Data Sync-up between Oracle and MS SQL Server

Hi All,
I am looking for a solution to sync-up the data between Oracle and MS SQL Server in real time. Here, the structure of table is different (in the sense, the data in multiple table in SQL Server should be combined and put it in a single table in Oracle and vice versa).
Could anybody throw light on this plz?
Thanks in advance!

Need Expert Advice regarding oracle and java objects

In our project, we are submitting data for many screens at a time. Some screens will have a list of records to be submitted. There is also some hierarchy among the data up to 4 levels.
In such a scenario, we need to know the best way to exchange data between Oracle and Java. Currently java holds the data as objects, where each object may contain an array of next level of objects in it.
Is it best approach to pass the entire data with hierarchy to Oracle using nested table approach and internally oracle handling the data? Is there any other way to do this?
Also in some scenarios we need to pass the entire information for all the screens in one shot with the hierarchy. So we need to know a solution for that also. Could you please help us in this regard?

Question about transfer between oracle and sql server

Could i program to transfer lots of data between Oracle and SQL Server quickly?
I have tried make two connection between two databases, but it took me lots of time to transfer data.
How could I do it?

Hi,
If you need to move data fast, then use the Oracle Migration Workbench to Generate SQL Server BCP data extraction scripts and Oracle SQL Loader files.
This is the fastest way to migrate the data.
In the Oracle Model UI tab of the Oracle Migration Workbench, right mouse click on the tables folder. there is a menu option to 'Generate SQL Loader ...' scripts. This will help you migrate your data efficiently.

Oracle and MS sql

hi
Is it possible to create a trigger in oracle so that when a row is inserted in a table it execute a stored procedure in MS sql server?
Thanks

Probably.
You might have to create a manual solution, something like inserting a row in a table which a process will periodically wake up and read extracting the data from Oracle and manually loading it into MS

Replicate the data from oracle to sybase

Hi, I have to replicate the data of some of the tables from Oracle 10g to Sybase.
Here the data from the table is live data (OLTP).
Is there any process like materalized view so that data is refreshed from Oracle to Sybase periodically.
Please let me know the Process for the same.

Read data from Oracle , not all data brought over

I have a strange problem when read data from Oracle and save to SQL Server.
For example , there are 20k rows of data in Oracle , I created SSIS data flow, and data saved in SQL Server , Everything looks fine. But late you will find only first 16k rows of data in SQL Server , the rest is simple missng. no error or any waring.
I am using OLE DB .
Great appreciate for any help.
Ray

Thanks. I think that UseSessionFormat=true
helped me fixed this kind of issue in my other project.
I actually found out this issue for this case I was asking. I am actually not missing data. It was a data type issue. A column was using a wrong datatype, so when I run a query and didn't get result I supposed.

Oracle JDBC driver 10g and xMII

I have a BLS that tries inserting CLOB data into Oracle 10g database. Since Oracle 8 JDBC driver does not support that (I saw other SDN messages on the same issue), I have download and copied Oracle JDBC driver for 10g
ojdbc14.jar to
C:\ServletExec AS\se-xMII\webapps\default\Lighthammer\WEB-INF\lib
folder
I restarted Servlet exec engine and I'm still seeing the same error
that the value to be inserted is too large ( I'm inserting more than
4000 characters but much lesser than 4 GB which CLOB column can take)
1. I want to understand if there is something else that I need to
change in order for xMII to pickup the new driver.
2. Also, should I add it classpath?
3. Looking at some Oracle notes on using capability of 10g driver for
manipulating large data, the property SetBigStringTryClob=true should
be set. I saw examples of some non-xMII applications setting it in their
servers.xml. Similarly, in which file can I set this property in xMII
to force the driver to use this feature?
Is ServerDefaults.xml under C:\Lighthammer\Illuminator\SysConf the
right place? Since it is not recommended to modify the configuration
files manually rather than using admin console, I'm not sure on this
one.
Let me know
Thanks

Are you really sure this "SetBig.." thing is the solution?
Searching for the ORA error you posted results in quite a few solutions in the way you write your SQL statement.
Maybe changing your statement might help.
If you don't mind can you post the SQL statement?
Another good test would be to see if the SQL statement goes through without any errors when used from a different SQL editor.I would suggest do that first if you haven't already.

HANA and geospatial data

Hi experts,
When will it be possible to load geospatial data into SAP HANA? Within Alliander we have two operational datastores in oracle and a BW datawarehouse. We want to combine the operational datastores and BW into one "in memory" evironment. One of the operational datastores containes geospatial data.
For the short term we can use Oracle exadata to combine the two operational datastores. For the midterm we would like to integrate the operational datastores and BW into HANA. This requires however that HANA can be loaded with geospatial data and HANA is able to handle geospatial data.
kind regards,
Frank Gubbels
Alliander (dutch utilities company)

Gregory, Can you please give some reference on how this is implemented, i would like to do the same. I have done it in Ipad with explorer(without fp3) but with FP3 on web ididnt get the interface as in the link you provided. Any help or links to related documentation is much appreciated.
-Thanks
