Oracle Corporation's VisionXavier Lopez

Director, Spatial TechnologiesOracle Corporation

OverviewUnderlying Technology TrendsOracle Approach to MarketSpecialist v. Generalist SolutionsWeb Services

Geospatial is becoming ubiquitousLocation Aware and Enabled Infrastructure

– Web Portals: Google, Amazon, Yahoo, AOL, Microsoft – Mobile devices (GPS, orientation, mobile content)

Geospatial Applications– Enterprise Spatial Hubs & Data Warehouses

Location-enabled Business Apps– CRM, Sales, Marketing, HR, Asset Management– Sensor Networks, RFID, Logistics

Automobiles: – By 2008, 80% of new cars will have some telematics

navigation access (eyeforauto 2004)

Geospatial Community in TransitionFrom Specialized to Standardized Spatial Services

– A changing dynamic toward ubiquitous enterprise use and adoption– “Today's $5 billion market for geospatial technologies is set to

explode to $30 billion in just a year.” US Dept. of Labor 2004 – Maturity of standard interfaces, components and platform

technologies (WMS, WFS, GML, SVG, XML, SOAP, Java, .Net)New Entrants

– Desktop: Microsoft, Open Source GIS– Mainstream IT: Oracle, Microsoft, SAP, IBM, Open Source– Web Portals: Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, MapQuest, GlobeXplorer

Traditional GIS Market in Transition– There will always be market for specialized spatial tech – GIS product vendors expanding into components, solutions, web

services, or data delivery

Role of Web Services in GIS and LBS

By 2008 web services will be a preferred method to publish and query spatial data storesSimplifies and expands access to valuable geographic data and location based servicesOpen, standard, easy access methodsLow computation environmentsConsumer-oriented or specialist information

Challenges to Deploying Web Services

Security risks: Cannot replace secure infrastructurePerformance: Not designed for CPU intensive searching, correlation, analysis Little flexibility and customization possible: Services tend to be get map, route, geocode, not generally application or customer specificExtrapolated data model supportSemantics standardization

Oracle Locator & Spatial

24

Oracle LocatorAll geometry types

– Points, lines, polygons– 2D, 3D, 4D

All indexing methods– R-Trees, Quadtrees (fixed or hybrid)

All spatial queries– Inside, touch, overlap, …

Proximity searches– Within distance, nearest neighbor

Distance calculationsMultiple projections

Base Features

Included with Oracle Database Standard Edition,

Standard Edition One, and Enterprise Edition

25

Spatial Query Via SQLFind all buildings within 500 meters of building 902

500 meters

SQL> SELECT a.building_id 2> FROM base_buildings a, 3> base_buildings b 4> WHERE b.building_id = 9025> AND SDO_WITHIN_DISTANCE(6> a.Location, b.Location, 7> ‘distance=500’) = ‘TRUE’;

26

Oracle SpatialIncludes Locator features plus :

– Geometry functions– Spatial aggregates– Linear referencing– Coordinate system transformation– User-defined coordinate systems

– Network Management– Topology– Raster integration– Geocoder– Spatial Data Mining

Advanced features

An option of OracleEnterprise Edition

Large data volumes, high user population
