Mapviewer - Spatial Data licensing

Hi,
I am working for a fortune 500 company and We are looking forward to use Oracle Mapviewer. My VPs straight question is how much the licensing cost per CPU? And I also know that in order to use MapViewer we need Oracle Spatial data how much will it cost per CPU?? Can any one help me with this question. We are using OBIEE 10g and SQL Server database.
Thanks in advance,
DK

the Spatial Data needs to be downloaded from NAVTEQ

Controlling access to Oracle Mapviewer spatial data through VPD

I am building a web GIS application in Oracle Application Express (APEX) and have used the Virtual Private Database feature of Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition so as to ensure row level security. I've integrated APEX with Oracle Mapviewer through Oracle Maps API in order to display a map.
VPD feature is working properly through the command prompt at the database level but I also need to use the VPD policy at the application level so that each authenticated user can only see his own spatial data on the map.
So far I have accomplished that by creating as many data sources as the number of application users on the mapViewerConfig.xml file. Every time a user logs in the web GIS application, the correct data source is being employed.
I was wondering if there is any other parameterised way that I can perform this access control functionality without having to create all these data sources.
Many thanks in advance.

Yes you can define a single "secure" MapViewer data source to achieve VPD or make use of your database VPD setup. For more details and how to get the Apex app user to MapViewer and then onto VPD you can check out my blog post here: http://oraclemaps.blogspot.com/2008/09/apex-oracle-maps-and-secure-mapping.html
hope this helps,

Mapviewer - Spatial Data Cache

I am trying to clear the spatial data cache in two different versions (mv10 & mv11ea) of Mapviewer without success. To confirm that the cache is being cleared I have enabled the report_stats as below in the mapViewerConfig.xml for both versions
    <spatial_data_cache   max_cache_size="64"
                          report_stats="true"
    />After a few requests I note the following in the log:
Cache group PARCEL_VIEW_SHAPE_82473_PDT_GEOM statistics:
   capacity: 262144
       size: 145988
load factor: 0.95
    # of chains: 88837
max chain depth: 8
avg chain depth: 1.6433242905546113
empty bucket %: 0.6611137390136719
total mem size : 28169KBKnowing (assuming) that this cache group is populated by a single theme that references the PARCEL_VIEW table I then issue the following via the Admin section of the Mapviewer control.
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<non_map_request>
<clear_theme_cache data_source="vicmap" theme="THEME_PARCEL" />
</non_map_request>Then, after waiting patiently for the next set of statistics to appear in the log (BTW, is there a way to change the frequency from 10 minutes to something more regular?) I notice that the information for the cache group has not changed.
Am I following the correct steps here? If I wish to clear the spatial cache, should I be monitoring these statistics?
All advice most welcome.
Ross.

Hi Ross,
we'll review the statistics reported and check why it is not changing. The frequency is currently hard-coded (5 minutes), and there is no parameter on the configuration file to change that. We may consider this in the future.

Need Help about Spatial Data Load - Mapviewer

Hello everybody,
I need an immediate help about spatial data load. I installed Oracle mapviwer quick start and try to work on it. However, I could not pass the load step. My questions are;
1- Where can I find and download my country's data set (spatial data)
2- With mapviwer, how can I load spatial data to my tables on database (Oracle). Those tables have sdo_geometry columns and I want to query location data, but could not load
Regards,
Dilek

For Mapviewer questions, please post in the following forum:

How to load spatial data from .shp file

Could anyone suggest an easy to use, free tool to upload spatial data from .shp file (or/and other open source spatial file sources) into an Oracle Locator database?
We have licensing for ArcGIS10, but nobody (including ArcGIS) have been able to successfully create a direct connection from their software to our Oracle 10.2 database.
Client desktops here are Windows 7 64bit, which further complicates matters (tend to find neither ArcGIS nor Oracle support 64bit OS in a cogent fashion)

790951,
. . . .You can also try Oracle's ShapeFile Converter (shp2sdo). It's a command line utility so there's automation potential.
. . . .Note that ESRI's tools may (depending on how they're used) store spatial content in Oracle Spatial as BLOBs containing their ST_GEOMETRY data-type (rather than Oracle's SDO_GEOMETRY type).

Noel

Acquiring Oracle Spatial Data through WFS

Hi,
I have been researching for awhile and am slightly confused.
I have Oracle Spatial 11g with geometry data and would like to be able to retrieve that data through a WFS to serve to a viewing application.
Here's where I am confused:
1) Spatial has a WFS service which needs to be configured. If I were configure that, would I be able to access the data through URL getFeature commands? The documentation I see for them has the getFeature requests in the form of XML files so I am not sure if I can do that. Also it seems like the service is returning .log files but I think I would want GML...
If this is the option I should take, the tutorial to setup OC4J and the Web Services are for a Linux machine (http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/11gr1_db/datamgmt/spatialws/spatialws.htm) -- Is there one for Windows 64bit?
2) Do I need another "application layer" to enable this URL support? I know MapServer can use URL requests.. can I just run this against the data in my DB and forget about the Oracle WFS?
3) MapViewer seems to work with WFS Themes and handle requests through Java and SQL.. is this another option?
I am basically confused as to where everything sits and what I should be focusing on to get my Spatial data out of the DB through a WFS. Any assistance on this matter would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Any help debugging this issue would be greatly appreciated:
As per the documentation:
http://localhost:8888/SpatialWS-SpatialWS-context-root/wfsservlet?request=GetCapabilities&service=wfs&version=1.0.0
:this get request should return the capabilities info however I receive this error message instead in the browser:

DISPLAY SPATIAL DATA USING JDBC ON A JAVA FRAME

I am trying to set up some spatial data and need help in getting some sample
code for displaying the data on a Java Frame using JDBC.
The shapes I am setting up are simple polygons, lines, circles. I was going
through the samples in the demo directory under $ORACLE_HOME/md/demo/examples, but could not find any JDBC
I would really appreciate if you can point me towards some sample code and any other spatial resources.
Madhukar

Here you go. It uses JDBC to fetch geoms, convert them into Java JGeometry objects, which then create Java2D shapes (these are functions of the public sdoapi.jar library). It then uses some class in the sdovis.jar library (the rendering engine of MapViewer) to setup the necessary viewport transform. If you know how to setup the viewport transform, then you dont even need sdovis. sdovis.jar is found in an deployed MapViewer's WEB-INF/lib directory. Or you can extract it from the mapviewer.ear's web.war file.

Where is Non-Spatial data provider

Hi!
I study the MapViewer and go over examples in Oracle Maps Tutorial. All examples work fine except "Dynamic XML BI data and choropleth map", "Dynamic XML BI data and Pie Charts" and "Dynamic XML BI data and dynamic theme".
I think at least second one (Dynamic XML BI data and Pie Charts) must show some sort of pie chars over the states polygons. I can only see the map with states.
Is there something as "Non-Spatial data provider" that should be installed manually ?
If not, where to start debugging?
Regards,
Sašo
Edited by: user594252 on 10.2.2011 15:07

I have ns_data_provider element uncommented in mapViewerConfig.xml :
<ns_data_provider
id="defaultNSDP"
class="oracle.sdovis.NSDataProviderDefault"
/>
On the other side, I can see pies&charts using
-Dynamic theme, BI data and Pie chart style
-Dynamic theme, pie chart and custom rendering rules
-Dynamic theme and dynamic Bar chart style
So there should be something wrong with handling "Dynamic XML BI data". This is essential for us, because we need integration between BI and Spatial.
Any advice?
Sašo

Map Viewer spatial data

Hi ,
How can we integrate MapViewer in OBIEE for a country that is not included in Oracle Spatial Data ?
Thx

Hi,
you must download from internet all the coordinate spatial for you country. I don't find this coordinate free but only for pay, for example yuo can see on navteq internet site

[Begginer] How to view my Oracle spatial Data ?

I'm a begginer , I know how to make and insert Spatial data but , i want to see it like map , how ?
Please tell me the software and good documentation ?

Try using MapViewer. It is downloadable from OTN:
http://otn.oracle.com/products/spatial
then click on the software button to find instructions and the MapViewer software.

Incorporating Spatial Data and maps

I am trying to figure out how to create a map from spatial data w/in forms9i, but I can't find any documentation. Has anyone been succesful at this?
Thanks,
Jeremy.

to use read_image_file() to show map on form is to show the map as static image, user cannot click ROOM IN button, then click a point on the image to show the details.
so to get it inside form and want the map to respond like on browser is interested feature to know, and also the download time and performance if finally done inside form is a big question mark too.
simply running the mapviewer on browser is properly the better way compared to invoke it inside form.
