Spatial database

I have a realy complex oracle database designed by the database team now they need to spatially enable this database and have come to the GIS guys. I was thinking maybe I can just spatially enable the address table in the database by geocoding that table. but is it possible to do advanced queried like we do in a database application only that this time the results will be shown in a map. Since I am just getting familiar with spatial I have tons of doubts. Will I need any third party Gis Tools to acheive this.
Thanks a lot

Hi,
You can add geocode information to an existing address table. Just alter the table and add a column of
type mdsys.sdo_geometry (assuming spatial is installed).
Once this is done you can add spatial contraints to complex sql statements using an additional predicate
in the where clause.
If you have Oracle 9iAS V2 it has a component called MapViewer that works with Oracle Spatial. It renders
maps int gif or bmp images that can be displayed. If you don't have it, you will need to have an app that
can make maps from spatial information.
The first Oracle 9i Release 2 Spatial course is coming up in a few weeks (Aug 19,20,21) - It is being taught
in Reston, VA. It includes a section on MapViewer.
The course is a great intro to Oracle Spatial, and this particular course will include people from Spatial
Engineering (doesn't usually happen). If you or someone in your company has the time, it will answer
most if not all of your questions.

Can we load generic binary image in Oracle spatial database

hi i am new to this topic. so kindly help me out.
can we store generic binary image in Oracle 10g spatial database?
generic i mean there is no header information.

hi everybody,
thanks in advance. i am in little bit confusion. actually i am new to oracle 10g spatial db concept and image processing. i have to decide whether to store DEM & ORTHO image in Oracle 10g spatial database. or using BLOB to store these images. i have to design physical as well as logical database to store both above mentioned images.
i don't have much knowledge about DEM & ORTHO image.
i don't know what to do. even though i have started some of the Oracle 10g spatial concepts. i would like to know can i also use oracle intermedia for storing these images (ORTHO & DEM images).
looking for help
thanks

Oracle 9i spatial database

Hi
I installed Oracle 9i spatial database for Windows XP in C: driver. I wonder if Oracle 9i Spatial could be removed to E: driver. If not, how to delete Oracle 9i database.

Regarding working with oracle spatial database connections

sir/madem,
i am an engg student, my final year project on inserting data into oracle spatial database through java /jsp , i am working with oracle spatial database 10g/11g,
i want know how to insert/retrive/ manuplute the spatial data into oracle spatial databse for 10g/11g, through java programing,
the syntax for connection of oracle spatial database 10g/11g, needed,
i have less time to finish my project
i hope u help me
thank u

For database access from Java, you will use JDBC.
For the specifics of the oracle spatial database, you'll have to check the documentation/forum of Oracle.

Spatial Database Design tool

Dear Sir,
I am planning to Design Spatial Database. can any one tell me which tool supports the spatial objects.
plz give me immediate reply
Thanks
Kabeer

Folks,
Most CASE tools allow for UDTs to be entered but don't do anything with
them - bit like "pass through" queries in Access!
The only 2 I know of that try and model Spatial data and topological
relationships between tables are Blueprint (free download from
www.geometryit.com) and Perceptory (requires Visio) from ULaval in Canada.
The Blueprint tool is very flexible but does not model the data type directly
(you are effectively limited to one spatial type per table). The product is
no longer under active development (because of the lack of people who
feel they need such a thing). I have asked the owners to make it open source
but they have only moved to a free download of the unsupported product.
However, Blueprint's power is in its scripting language. I have a bunch of scripts that will generate oracle spatial DDL, Trimble Data Dictionaries and other spatial
products from the model that I am willing to share.

How To Start Spatial Database

Hi everyone,
I have been working in Oracle world about 9 months, and now I am supposed to learn Oracle spatial database, and be a team member for spatial dw project. I searched it on google, but I also want to ask you about the starting point.
Can you help me please.
Regards,
Dilek

Hi,
1. you need to read books about Oracle Spatial.
2. Take Oracle Spatial Course (instructor-led).
3. start hands on work and implementation.
4. if you have a senior team member who have extensive knowledge in Oracle Spatial ....ask him to be your "mentor".
5. you need to have PL/SQL skills, if you don't have it then start learning it.
Hope This General Tips Helps.
Regards,

Mining spatial database.

Hi,
I am using ODM 10g with Oracle 10g Database EE. I am using ODM for my thesis. I am wondering is there anyone try to use ODM with Association Rule to mine Spatial database? If yes, could you please share your experience?
Any piece of information will be appreciated.
Thank you very much.
Kind Regards,
Usman Tjiudri.

Usman,
Oracle Spatial and ODM had several case studies
to mine using spatial estimates/aggregates.
Specifically, we looked at how spatial estimates
improve the accuracy of classification using abn, and
the rmse in svm regression. We had very good results
using spatial information. We expect spatial
estimates to be useful when the tgt is likely to
be correlated in "location", e.g. crimerates,
real estate values etc. Note that we
have not tried association rules in this study.
Would be interesting to know your experience.
ODM group may have a link to this case study
somewhere. Otherwise, please post your email address
and we will be happy to send you more information.

Spatial database model design guidelines?

Are there public guidelines on how to design a Spatial Database
Model?
i.e.
- is it better to have one table of geometries (elements) or is
it better to have many?
- is it better to store structured data (alphanumeric) in the
same table with spatial data or is it better to reference them
with foreign keys?
- etc
I guess all I need is some kind of methodology for building a
spatial model. Is there anything like this available?
Regards

Hi Pablo,
From a database design perspective, spatial data should be
modeled in the same way other data is modeled. For instance, if
you have river data that has 1 row in a database for every river,
then you might add another column in the same table stored with
the other information about the river that includes the location
information about the river. The same would be true of other
information. For instance, if you wanted to store the location
of all of the customers in your customers table, it is simple
another column in the customers table.
<< - is it better to have one table of geometries (elements) or
is it better to have many? >>
So geometries are just column information like other column
information that you store in a table. There shouldn't be
separate tables that hold only geometry information.
<< - is it better to store structured data (alphanumeric) in the
same table with spatial data or is it better to reference them
with foreign keys? >>
Treat spatial data the same way from a design standpoint as other
data.
Hope this helps.

Hi
There is an Oracle Incremental Update IKM for spatial support in ODI that takes into account tables with spatial types and supports the incremental update pattern.

Spatial Database Upgradation

Hi,
We are upgrading our exisiting database (9.2.0.8.) to Oracle Database 11g R2, it has got spatial and non spatial data, i need to know best approch to migrate the database.
Thanks !!

Your best bet would be to use DBUA to perform the upgrade, and to test/verify thoroughly on a test system before touching production. These MOS Docs may also help

Oracle Spatial Database option

hello all,
I downloaded Oracle 9i Personal Edition for Windows 98 platform.
It is a free download @ technet.oracle.com.I have successfully installed the database.
Now i was looking for an "Oracle Spatial" option in the database.
Can anybody tell me how can i store geospatial data in the Oracle database ?
or how can i set the option "Oracle Spatial" in the database ?
I m looking forward for ur help.
Bikram.

Try connecting as SCOTT/TIGER, then do this:
select * from user_sdo_geom_metadata;
if the table does not exist, then spatial hasn't been installed
if it does exist, then spatial (or locator) has been installed.
If the table didn't exist, rerun the installer, choose a custom
installation, and check the Spatial box, then install.
If the table did exist, or after you install spatial, you'll want to
use the user's guide, or take the spatial course to get started.

Spatial coordinates and spatial database

does anybody know how to record spatial coordinates in the oracle database express edition and how to add the map viewer extensions to express edition

The Oracle feature you want to use is Oracle Locator - it is a cut down version of the full Spatial feature which is an added cost add-in to the Enterprise Edition.
As a first step read the Express documents - look for Locator in the master index - it will point you to the 2 day Locator developer book for Express.
So much for database side of things.
Mapviewer is a 10g Application Server tool - I am not expert in this but I think you do need 10gAS in the stack to serve up maps even if the data is hosted on XE
Another option to consider is the use of technologies such as Google Maps to serve the mapping overlayed with your data - examples exist on OTN to give a start
