Latitude and Longitude values

Hi,
I am new to Oracle spatials, If I have to store the latitude and logitude coordinates values information in the Oracle Spatial.What format the latitude and logitude coordinates values should be?
Is there any standard latitude and longitude format for Oracle Spatials.
Generally what format I have to get it and what conversion I have to used to store it on SDO_GEOMETRY object.
If you give any examples It would be really helpful.
Thanks,
Vino

Ordinate values are stored as decimal numbers.
For example the longitude value 147 degrees 30 minutes is stored as 147.5.
Also, lat/long data is actually stored in an SDO_GEOMETRY object in longitude,latitude order (not latitude, longitude).
So, a point 147.5 long and -32.5 latitude is stored:
SDO_GEOMETRY(2001,8311,SDO_POINT_TYPE(147.5,-32.5,NULL),NULL,NULL)Hope this helps.

XMP metadata: latitude and longitude

I have tried to pull in latitude/longitude data on a photo. Most of the XMP fields are not populated. I am wondering if the XML is correct within FCS... It could be my issue though. I used my iPhone to test. iPhoto is able to read the coordinates as well as photoshop. Why can't FCS pull this information in?
This is going to be a very important function for us in the very near future. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

So if I'm right, the Latitude and Longitude from the photo you posted maps to location in South Florida.
The XMP EXIF GPS Dynamic metadata values are completely wrong in FCSvr. The timestamp is set to 12/31/69 for some reason, but inspecting the file via the mdls command in the terminal
i.e.
mdls iphonephotogps.jpg
Reveals the following Latitude and Longitude values.
kMDItemLatitude = 28.59650039672852
kMDItemLongitude = -81.36000061035156
If this is correct, then you could write a script that could slurp the Spotlight Metadata from the file and inject it into FCSvr.
I have a script that does something very similar for extracting audio files. I wrote this for a client, so I can't open source it, but if you contact me offline, I may be able to customize it for your needs and point you in the correct direction development wise.

Convert pixel point to Latitude and Longitude

I am trying to create a custom map for iOS. For the time being I am using Openstreetmap images for the custom map app.
Now what I want is to convert the pixel point to Latitude and Longitude value at a particular zoom level. I am finding out the tile(pixel point) in which I clicked. I need to find out the Lat and Long of that particular point. How this can be calculated? Is there any general formula to find the Lat & Long from pixel point.
Thanks in advance

Latitude and Longitude converting in flash

Hello team,
I have Latitude and Longitude values in radians with me. I
want to map these data to flash coordinate system (in terms of X
and Y). Could anyone help me in converting the angles into flat X
and Y system of flash.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Nilesh Walkoli

Hi Roscoe,
Based on my test, we can use the query below to convert Latitude and Longitude to geographic data type:
SELECT 'POINT(' + CAST([Longitude] AS VARCHAR(10)) + ' ' + CAST([Latitude] AS VARCHAR(10)) + ')' as geography FROM table
Geographic data is used as spatial data in map. Spatial data defines the appearance of the map whereas analytical data provides the values that are associated with the map. The following sources of spatial data are supported:
Map gallery
ESRI shapefiles
SQL Server spatial query
In your scenario, we should select SQL Server spatial query that use a query that returns spatial data from a database to define map areas. For more details, please refer to the following articles:
Tutorial: Map Report (Report Builder)
Creating an SSRS Map report with data pinpoints
Hope this helps.

Sharepoint 2013 - How to get Geolocation column's latitude and longitude

Hi,
Can anybody help to get the Geolocation column's latitude and longitude values programitically ?
Regards

SharePoint 2013 introduces a new field type named Geolocation that enables you to annotate SharePoint lists with location information. For example, you can now make lists "location-aware" and display latitude and longitude coordinates through
Bing Maps. An entry is typically seen as a pushpin on a map view.

How to Find the Location in Google Maps using Latitude and Longitude

Hai,
I need to find the Location from Google Maps, which is match with the Latitude and Longitude values we are sending.
This will be done by using pure java class i need, can anyone having the sample code for this.
It's Urgent, please help me
Expecting replies...

Yes we were having the performance issues when it is getting locked? in this what i want to know
why it happens suddenly?
or what package this piece of code is calling?
or is there any possiblity of system will degrade the performance like sys user etc...?
where exactly i found the root cause for further analysis?
so that next time onwards if particular objects is locking we come to know why it happens is there any logical false or how do we eliminate this issue last time?
coz in our environment sometimes most of lockings are from the same table?
pls let me know where i have to concentrate for debug and how to troubloshoot and reslove this
sorry for the inconvience.. i m expecting the answer from here. if anybody wants some more info i ll let him know.
as of till now i got some docs i start to read this.
Regards

Note: will system/sys degrade the performance ?if so how ?

Calculate distance between Latitude and Longitude

Hi All,
I have one Latitude and Longitude points. I need to calculate distance between them.
Right now we are using HAVERSINE formula but the query takes longer time to complete.
Reference: http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong.html
Please assist on this.
Thanks in advance.

Check this link...
http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel-questions/202255-calculating-distance-between-two-latitude-longitude-points.html
I never did this before, but gave it a try using the formula mentioned in that link..
Data:
                   Lat                      Long                               R = 6,371 (Radius of earth (approximated))
Origin:        44.844263(B2)      -92.914803(C2)
Destination: 44.822075(B3)     -92.912498(C3)
Formula used:
A: =SIN(ABS(B3-B2)*PI()/180/2)^2+COS(B2*PI()/180)*COS(B3*PI()/180)*SIN(ABS(C3-C2)*PI()/180/2)^2
B: =2*ATAN2(SQRT(1-A),SQRT(A))
C: =R*B                  ---> DISTANCE!!!!
WITH t AS
        (SELECT POWER (
                   SIN (ABS (44.822075 - 44.844263) * ( (22 / 7) / 180 / 2)),
                   2)
                + COS (44.844263 * ( (22 / 7) / 180))
                  * COS (44.822075 * ( (22 / 7) / 180))
                  * POWER (
                       SIN (
                          ABS (-92.912498 - (-92.914803))
                          * ( (22 / 7) / 180 / 2)),
                       2)
                   E2
           FROM DUAL)
SELECT (2 * ATAN2 (SQRT ( (1 - E2)), SQRT (E2))) * 6371
FROM t;
Check if this gives correct values... (I did not verify this properly.. ) And this is faster in my opinion..
Please post your code for better suggestions from volunteers...
Cheers,
Manik.

Predict Trip time duration from Pick up and Drop off Latitude and Longitude using Azure ML Studio

I'm using Microsoft
Azure Machine Learning Studio to create an experiment for predicting
time duration of a trip by using
a data set containing previous records of the trip time along with latitude and longitude of the pick up and drop off location.
Can anyone help me out with whatregression model (or
R-Script optional) should I use to train my model?

Hi,
Are you training with raw latitude/longitude? If so, you should try clustering the start/end points into groups. An easy way to do this is to take a decimal or two off the values. Otherwise, the algorithm is seeing
many, many, unique pairs which may degrade the model performance.
You will probably also want to use the
Learning with Counts modules to summarize that lat/lon data because even with clustering, the features will still have high dimensionality. Here's some info on learning with counts:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/machinelearning/archive/2015/02/17/big-learning-made-easy-with-counts.aspx
Also, we did some experiments on similar data so if you want to read more about that see:

CLLocationManager doesn't detect latitude and longitude

Hi ,
i am facing one problem while using CLLocationManager class to get latitude and longitude. It works fine when device has network(wifi or cellular network). But in some devices when there is no network it fails and "didFailWithError" delegate gets called. Here is the observation :
iPhone 4 : Works fine with or without network(wifi or cellular network)
iPhone 3gs : Works only when there is network(wifi or cellular network)
I came to know that iPhone uses AGPS, does it mean that it always require network . If so how it worked in iPhone 4. Please suggest me what is going wrong here ?

I tried many times in different scenarios(with no network) but 3GS only first time it gave the location then failed but in iPhone 4 after "Failed" delegate call also it was giving location values continuously.
Here is the sample code :
    CLLocationManager *locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
          [locationManager setDesiredAccuracy:kCLLocationAccuracyBestForNavigation];
    locationManager.distanceFilter = kCLDistanceFilterNone;
          [locationManager setDelegate:self];
    [locationManager startUpdatingLocation];

Custom Map using latitude and longitude data points

Hi,
I am new to Apex and I want to lost custom data points using latitude and longitude data points. I
have seen posts referring to the chart example (http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=36648:65:2214483882702::NO:::) ; could someone help me with the following:
1) How to add On Demand Application Process to a map page (step 4 in the demo)
2) What is a hidden item and how to add it to a page (step 6)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,

I am trying to do the same thing. I have got the get_data function working to create the desired output. However when I replace the xml <data> block with &P65_DATA, it does not work. If I display P65_DATA on the page, it has correct output. If I cut and paste the output into custom XML, it works fine. Anyone have come across this issue..any ideas how to fix it?

Latitude and longitude co-ordinates not appearing correctly

I am trying to allocate a 'place' to a photograph by inputting the latitude and longitude. The place is 'The Needles" at the extreme western point of the Isle of Wight, the co-ordinates being 50.3973N and 01.3552W. However, when I enter these co-ordinates in the format as indicated in the 'help' section of iphoto (i.e. 50.3973, 01.3552), the place comes up somewhere off the coast of France in the English Channel! Can anyone please advise me if I am not entering the numbers correctly or is there a problem with iphoto?

When I show extended photo info on a photo that is correctly positioned it displays as
GPS Latitude l.llllll˚ N
GPS longitude n.nnnnn˚ W
Have you tried with a space between the digits and the N or W?
Also you might try experimenting with adding a minus sign to one or the other of the fields although that does not sound correct off the top of my head
If you have a photo that is correctly located there you can use HoudahGeo - http://www.houdah.com/houdahGeo/ - to locate the rest of the photos from the correct photo's location - this is a very useful function to take lots of photos with a non GPS camera and take one with your iPhone and use its location for the others

How to find the latitude and longitude based on the Customer's address

Can someone help me as to how to go about this.
Thanks and Regards,

Getting Power View on Sharepoint to interpret latitude and longitude correctly

After pulling my hair for a few dozen hours I come here with a simple question.
I have a SQL Server 2012 View - joining 3 different tables, one of which contains latitude and longitude in Decimal(9,6) format.
I have a Tabular model using this view which I push to Analysis services and further on to Sharepoint 2013.
However, when I pull the longitude and latitude columns to the corresponding fields in Power View, the data is just placed standardly in the Artic Sea. Now I have tried changing to and from commas and periods as decimal separator but nothing seems to work.
I can get it to work using Power Map and Power View for Excel 2013 but not on Sharepoint.
I have spent a great deal of time on Google searching for answers but nothing seems to adress this issue, despite it being asked before

I too have been frustrated by this behavior. I also have issues with locations in Puerto Rico showing up in Europe using the zip code and/or state. I've found when I use lat/long things look correct which makes resolving this
issue even more pressing for me.
Unfortunately in the SharePoint construct you cannot control how the api interrupts the address like you can in Excel. I think that is why models in excel recognize latitude and longitude without issue but in SharePoint it's a no go. I have
not tried to see if the tabular construct recognizes lat/long.

IPhoto 9.5 using latitude and longitude

I am extremely frustrated with iPhoto's location function. I'm trying to geotag photos using latitude and longitude. iPhoto insists on trying to convert lat/long to an address that is inaccurate. When I try to reposition the pin point in the map it flies all over the place faster than I can control. When I try to delete the location that iPhoto has added, it refuses. When I turned off Automatic place lookup, the program won't allow me to enter address information at all.
(After trying to use iPhoto's location function, I can't help but wonder if anyone at Apple has actually tried using it.)
Is there a secret to getting iPhoto to accept lat/long inputs unaltered? Or should I just use Graphic Converter to geotag photos (which has a beautiful function - center Google Earth on the precise location and Graphic Convert imports the exact lat/long)?

using Lat/long is easy as described in this article - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2381
You also can use the paste location command if you have another photo in the place you want - copy that photo, select the remaining photos at tha location and paste location
Graphic converter is an option
HouDahGeo is another option that can safely deal directly with the iPhtoo library - http://houdah.com/houdahGeo/

IPhoto '09 - Adding your own latitude and longitude

It appears that iPhoto 09 does not allow you to add your own Geo location (e.g.: latitude and longitude data). Is this correct?
Are we limited to the list Apple provides?

I downloaded a Exif viewer app to double check to, and it was there the 2nd time I exported and ticked locations, and text and keywords.
I also just downloaded Picasa for MAC, and it doesnt support direct looking at Google Earth on the Mac yet, but the L/L is there in the pic data, but the keywords are not shown, in picasa
So is this the only way to get it out then?
can you make a new album with all your pics in, and then export all at once?
Or can I take it that if I pick the picture direct from the iPhoto library in Finder and copy it , it will have the L/L and keyword data in?
cheers
