Rasterizing vector (point) data in Oracle

Hi,
I am interested in taking a selection of points from a table and converting these into a raster representation, is there a way to do this automatically in Oracle Spatial?
i.e supply a selection of points, the desired cell size, perhaps a bounding box, etc. and output a GeoRaster.
Any other suggestions are welcome.
Cheers,
MH

You can use GDAL tools for that, see an example:
$ gdal_grid -outsize 4304 3788 \
-of georaster \
-txe 279043.500 524371.500 \
-tye -2288293.500 -2504209.500 \
-a_srs EPSG:32650 \
-ot Float32 \
oci:scott/tiger@orcl -l points \
-zfield "points" \
geor:scott/tiger@orcl,landsat,scene \
-co INSERT="(77,'DEM',sdo_geor.init('landsat_rdt',77))"
Where "oci:scott/tiger@orcl -l points" is a sdo_geometry and "geor:scott/tiger@orcl,landsat,scene" is a sdo_georaster.
For more information see [http://www.gdal.org/gdal_grid.html] [http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_oci.html] [http://www.gdal.org/frmt_georaster.html]

Oracle version: 8i - 9.0.x.x
There was no option that I can recall or could find. All the parsing of XML that I've done in 8i was via the xmldom package.
Oracle version: 9.2.x.x - 10.1.x.x
This is were Oracle introduced extract, extractValue and TABLE(XMLSequence(extract())) for dealing with repeating nodes.
Oracle version: 10.2.x.x
Oracle introduced XMLTable as a replacement for the previous methods since it could handle all three methods for extracting data from XML. At that point, Oracle stopped enhancing extract/extractValue in terms of performance and focused on XMLTable. In 10.2.0.1 and .2, XMLTable was implemented via Java and in .3 it was moved into the kernel so performance from .3 onwards should be better than the older 9.2 / 10.1 methods. If not, feel free to open a ticket with Oracle support. Apparently Oracle also introduced XMLQuery as well but I've never heard of many using that in 10.2

I want to load data into Oracle using XML & Java - hints??

I have a XML files that are created on a timed basis....they describe a photo and point to a dir where the photo is stored...like...
<image>
<user>bill</user>
<img>photo.jpg</img>
<img_dir>'/tmp/photos'</img_dir>
</image>
I'd like to write a Java program that parses the XML and loads the images, data into Oracle.
Suggestions on Oracle tools, downloads that will help me accomplish this???
Thanks!

Depending on whether you want assistance in doing the insert into the database or whether you don't mind writing the JDBC code to perform the insert, you can get by with only our XML Parser for Java v2, which implements SAX, DOM, XPath, and XSLT standards. The latest beta release (2.1.0) supports SAX2 and DOM2.
If you want help inserting the XML into tables, then in addition to this, you might want our XML SQL Utility as well.

How to Display Data from Oracle E Business Suite tables in ADF

Hi,
I am new to ADF.
I have a requirement to Create an ADF page for Search Results Screen.
However the result data is from one of the Oracle E Business Suite Tables.
ie I need to create a Screen where user will enter a Purchase Order Number and Click on Button.
The Screen should show details from PO_HEADERS_ALL (from Oracle ERP Database Table) based on the entered PO Number.
Is it possible to implement the same? Can some one guide me how to do it?
Thanks,
Kamath

Hi,
Is there a way where I can create a VO in ADF to which I can insert records dynamically from a source and the Source connects to E Business Suite tables and returns results ie BPEL etc.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15523_01/web.1111/b31974/bcadvvo.htm#sm0341
Just replace the PLSQL example with your data source
Can ADF invoke SOA which inturn connects to Oracle E Business Suite and fetches the data from Oracle tables and pass it back to ADF? Is it possible
Yes. Just use a WS proxy client to access the SOA entry point (WSDL) and follow the link above

Defining and Viewing BLOB Data in Oracle Application Express 3.2

Hello All,
There is a nice tutorial for working with images in Application Express 3.1 entitled "Defining and Viewing BLOB Data in Oracle Application Express 3.1". I have 3.2 and I am finding that I can't follow this tutorial... Is there any similar how to for 3.2?
Thank you,
Daniel

Hi,
I have just gone through the first steps in my OTN workspace app, and I do get the Implementation option (showing Interactive or Classic). In fact, my page at this point matches exactly the image shown in the tutorial.
My OTN workspace app uses Apex version 3.2. The Interactive reports are relatively new, so older versions of Apex would not have this option. But you say that you are using version 3.2? If you just try to create a report page on, say, EMP, do you get the option to select Interactive or Classic?

Uploading bulk data in oracle spatial

Hi,
I need to upload a map data in (input is ESRI File geodatabase) in Oracle Spatial using ArcSDE.
I have Oracle spatial 10g, ArcGIS desktop 9.3. I am able to connect the oracle spatial data using arcsde and i am able to view those maps in arcmap. Also, i am able to upload small esri shape files in oracle spatial using esri arccatalog through arcsde.
I would like to know, the steps to be followed to upload a road network for North america (around 15gb) data as SDO. If there is any document available it will be more useful for me.
Or pls. share your experience in this.
Thanks,
Vadivelan. P

Yikes,
You won't require 150 gig of undo to load your data with ESRI tools. Noel might need to start a new thread to discuss that issue as his bulk loader may need some tuning. :p
All ESRI bulk loaders use a rather modest auto-commit. ArcCatalog is 1000 records and sdeimport is 2000 records by default. So after loading that many records the tool does a commit and thus avoids much undo at all. You can easily change this number to tune performance (higher for point data, lower for huge honkin' polygons) in the parameters.
At this point I would say the heck with all these torpedoes and give your load a try. You stated in the very first thread that you have loaded shapefiles successfully into Oracle Spatial so the assumption is you have your dbtune keywords setup and are all set with the issues of mapping ESRI coordinate systems into Oracle Spatial. So full steam ahead! Another idea would be to load a small subset of the data and make sure its correct to your needs before doing the whole thing. My opinion is I don't think you need to worry about the 15 gig size of the load. Yes it will take some time to do but I would bet whatever problems you run into are the same you would face with a 15 meg load.
Cheers and good luck,
Paul

Passing data from Oracle stored procedures to Java

We're going to write a new web interface for a big system based on Oracle database. All business rules are already coded in PL/SQL stored procedures and we'd like to reuse as much code as possible. We'll write some new stored procedures that will combine the existing business rules and return the final result dataset.
We want to do this on the database level to avoid java-db round trips. The interface layer will be written in Java (we'd like to use GWT), so we need a way of passing data from Oracle stored procedures to Java service side. The data can be e.g. a set of properties of a specific item or a list of items fulfilling certain criteria. Would anyone recommend a preferable way of doing this?
We're considering one of the 2 following scenarios:
passing objects and lists of objects (DB object types defined on the schema level)
passing a sys_refcursor
We verified that both approaches are "doable", the question is more about design decision, best practice, possible maintenance problems, flexibility, etc.
I'd appreciate any hints.

I'd appreciate any hints.If logic is already written in DB, and the only concern is of passing the result to java service side, and also from point of maintenance problem and flexibility i would suggest to use the sys_refcursor.
The reason if Down the line any thing changes then you only need to change the arguments of sys_refcursor in DB and as well as java side, and it is much easier and less efforts compare to using and changes required for Types and Objects on DB and java side.
The design and best practise keeps changing based on our requirement and exisiting design. But by looking at your current senario and design, i personally suggest to go with sys_refcursor.

How to Extract Data from Oracle DB ?

hi,
I am trying to Extract Data from Oracle DB using DBconnect. and looks like its not working. Not able to connect to Database.
thanks

Hi,
Can you please follw the below steps:
If you need to load data from an Oracleu2122 database use DB Connect instead of an ETL Tool
Although limited to full updates, it allows true u201Chands-offu201D automation of data extraction
Is not limited to Oracleu2122 databases, it supports ALL database systems supported by SAP BW
DB Connect can read the remote data dictionary, replicate table and views, and transfer metadata into the SAP BW Meta Data Repository.
1.Begin with your data model
2.Identify which tables provide:
Master Data
Transactional Data
3.Once the model is complete:
Obtain a UID and Password from the DBA
Ensure that table synonyms are not used u2013 they donu2019t work at this point in time (SAP Note # 518241)
Your UID has to have select permissions on the required database objects.
4.In the admin workbench open the modeling tab and select Source Systems
5.In the right pane, right-click on Source Systems and select Createu2026
6. you have to define the type of source system. Select u201CDatabase Systemu201D
7.Enter a description for the source system
8.Once you accept the definition of the source system, you have to provide the following information, save and back out:
DBMS: ORA (Oracle)
User Name: Your UID
DB password: Your pwd
Conn. Info: sql*net string
Select u201CPermanent connectionu201D if this is the case
9.If everything went well, you should see the new source system. When you do a right-click and ask for the DataSource overview, the first time you execute it you will be prompted to generate the application hierarchy. Answer yes to the prompt and then you will be able to see the DataSource tree.
10.In order to test connectivity, right-click on the source system and select u201CSelect Database Tablesu201D
11.Click on the execute button.
12.Next shows up displaying any tables or views that you have access through your UID
13.Select a table or view and click on u201CEdit DataSourceu201D.
14.To test data retrieval, click on u201CDisplay table contentsu201D
15.Designate the application component, determine the type of DataSource (Text, Master data, or Transaction data) then generate the DataSource.
16.For each applicable table/view generate the repeat steps 13 to 15.
17.From there, assign the DataSource to each target (InfoObject, InfoProvider) as usual.
Moving from Dev to QA to Prod:
18.Before transporting all you configuration work, you will have to manually set up the source system (Steps 4 to 8) in your QA or Prod
19.Depending on your authorization settings in Production, you may need to implement a system restore. Work with BASIS if you need to, donu2019t do it on your own!
20.Then transport your InfoObjects, InfoProviders, Update Rules, Transfer Rules, InfoPackages, etc.
21.If you developed the process chains, transport them separately.
22.Try to maximize throughput by using parallel processing of master data
23.Ensure the right sequence for transactional data loads is followe.
24.Combine the master data loads and the transactional data loads in a master process chain.
It can be help full.

Kumar,
Ftping the PG.xml to mds folder will not help the page to goto MDS directory
You have to import the file using xmlimporter
I understand you have done the import, but it is not success.
Could you please post what is the script you used to import the PG.xml
and once you run what was the output you have got.
May be you can refer the URL for the scripts

How do you prevent Acrobat PDFMaker from rasterizing vector graphics?

I am using the "Create PDF" button (provided by the Acrobat PDFMaker in Acrobat X) to create a PDF from a Microsoft Word 2010 document.
This works fine, except that vector graphics in the Word document appear in the resulting PDF as raster graphics. (That is, when I zoom in, document text outside the graphics appears smooth, but the graphics are blocky; and text inside the graphics that should be retained as text - it's not converted to curves - is just pixels.)
The original artwork for the vector graphics is in CorelDRAW X6 (sorry, Adobe!).
I have exported the following files from the original vector drawing in CorelDRAW:
- EPS (with TIFF preview)
- Windows metafile (.wmf)
- Enhanced metafile (.emf)
I can insert any of these files into Word okay (Insert > Picture), but the resulting PDF always contains a rasterized (bitmapped) version of the vector graphic ("line art").
From memory, this didn't use to happen in my previous working environment (Acrobat 8 Pro with Word 2003, using artwork exported from CorelDRAW 12).
How do you prevent Acrobat X PDFMaker from rasterizing vector graphics? Or is Word 2010 (or CorelDRAW X6) somehow to "blame" here?

Transparency Flattening is being invoked.
From the Create PDF button, select Properties, what is your setting for Default Settings? Select High Quality Print

Get date from Oracle when local time zone is different from Oracle time zon

Hi!
Local machine time zone= +2
Oracle time zone= +1
I set date to Oracle using java.sql.Date.
From application I save date at 00:30 clock and send e.g. 28.06.2002, but in Oracle date is save as 27.06.2002 01:00 (hour=01 , I suppose that is because java.sql.Date hasn't time the Oracle set it time = time zone=+1) And when I get date from Oracle I get incorrect date. In SQL I don't use date masks. Maybe solution is to use java.sql.Timestamp object (when save date to Oracle) instead of java.sql.Date?
But if I save date at e.g. 01:00 clock and send e.g. 28:06.2002 in Oracle, date is save as 28.06.2002 01:00 and when I read from Oracle I get correct date.
Thank you.

incorrect date. In SQL I don't use date masks. Maybe
solution is to use java.sql.Timestamp object (when

Extracting data from Oracle to a flat file

I'm looking for options to extract data a table or view at a time to a text file. Short of writing the SQL to do it, are there any other ideas? I'm dealing with large volumes of data, and would like a bulk copy routine.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Is there any script which i can use for pulling data from tables to a flat file and then import that data to other DB'sFlat file is adequate only from VARCHAR2, NUMBER, & DATA datatypes.
Other datatypes present a challenge within text file.
A more robust solution is to use export/import to move data between Oracle DBs.

Premiere CS3: How can you encode xml cue point data in the chapter section of a marker for FlashVid?

Hi there,
I'm a total newb to this forum, so hello adobe premiere community! I'm perplexed by Adobes documentation on Premiere (and I'm sure I'm not the first ) anyway on the live documents page below:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/PremierePro/3.0/help.html?content=WS9390BED7-9466-46ea-A0E A-3240F1AFC36C.html
it states that:
“The cue point data in the Chapter field of a sequence marker in Adobe Premiere Pro will be encoded as Flash XML. For the XML protocol required, see Flash Help.”
Which is great…except this information doesn’t exist seemingly in either the Premiere documentation or Flash either for that matter, but as I’m interested in working with the chapter/marker area in Premiere – should I really be told to go off and search the documentation for another application, probably not! What would have been useful would have been a code snippet saying you do it like this, but of course, that would make things too easy!
Basically, I understand that in After FX you can add Flash marker information specifically for interpretation when exporting to Flash Video (i.e. name, type and parameters etc) and it suggests that you can do the same above in Premiere CS3 using some kind of concatenated string in the chapter area…it just doesn’t tell you how anywhere seemingly – WHY ADOBE!
Currently when I export markers as cue points based on the advice in the page above, anything I put in the chapter section to force Premiere to create a cue point is converted to a string, which becomes the cue point ‘name’.
This cue point name is then automatically appended to the ‘time’ the marker was inserted at and is always encoded as type ‘navigation’, with no obvious means of adding ‘parameters’ into the equation.
So (finally) does anyone know if you can insert this information into the chapter area for correct interpretation by flash (i.e. thus allowing you to choose between either 'navigation' or 'event' types, and pass as many 'parameters' as you wish etc) or are you just limited to supplying a name, and it being automatically set to the navigation type with no parameters?
I’m sorry for this long essay but at least the issue is well defined for you to answer, honestly any help you can provide what so ever would really be most appreciated!
Best regards,
Kat
PS – I have utterly no knowledge of XML either just in case you were wondering – and my only interest in XML is getting this basic information encoded into the FLV file from Premiere Pro CS3! Please help, pretty please with daisy’s!!!

Hi dradeke,
Thanks for your reply, which is indeed useful as clearly Adobe have made this task easier and less obscure in CS4 by adding simple interface functionality, however I'm stuck with using CS3 for the moment. Its not majorly a problem as the video material in question can be exported uncompressed then setup with cue points using the Flash encoder as an alternative (i.e. or even After FX CS3 also) which both provide the same features as Premiere CS4 seemingly. It is just that it would be much easier to be able to drop in simple markers whilst working with Premiere CS3, as this is what we are going to be using primarily, I just wondered if anyone knew how to invoke this in CS3 - its possible you can't, the documentation is vague at best!
However I really appreciate your response and help, thanks
