What is Oracle Spatial and Oracle Locator?
Oracle Spatial and Oracle Locator, is a feature in Oracle database that stores location applications.
Oracle locator-Standard and Enterprise Editions that provides core location functionality.
Oracle Spatial is an option for Oracle Enterprise Edition that provides advanced spatial features to support high-end GIS and Location Based System solutions.
Oracle Locator do
All geometric objects – Points, lines, polygons – 2D, 3D, 4D Indexing (quadtrees and
r-trees) Spatial queries Proximity queries Distances Projections
Oracle Spatial do
=Locator + ... Geometric Transformations Spatial Aggregations Network Modeling Topology Raster Geocoder Spatial Data Mining 3D Types (LIDAR, TINS) Web Services (WFS, CSW,
OpenLS)
Spatial information systems (Ex. GIS) Geographic Information Systems (GIS) integrates
hardware, software, and data for capturing, managing, analyzing, and displaying all forms of geographically referenced information.
Evolution mainly from government, then started development from commercial software vendors.
Enterprise GIS offers tools to share and view the spatial data through internet.
Geographic Information Systems
Stores attributes, raster images, vector data Have capability to provide business logics such as
relationships, domain values, networks, subtypes
GIS vs. Oracle Spatial GIS is stand-alone system. Incompatible for e-business applications Dual Architecture

GIS vs. Oracle Spatial Fully integrated, Single Architecture. Location analysis without GIS Useful for corporate and business applications

Spatial database
Storing Spatial data in a Database
Three types of geometry: Points, Lines, and Polygons
Spatial data storage in Oracle Use SDO_GEOMETRY for vector Use SDO_GEORASTER for raster images
Structure of SDO_GEOMETRYSDO_GTYPE NUMBERSDO_SRID NUMBERSDO_POINT SDO_POINT_TYPESDO_ELEM_INFO SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAYSDO_ORDINATES SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY
• ExampleSQL> CREATE TABLE states (state VARCHAR2(30),totpop NUMBER(9),geom SDO_GEOMETRY);
Details…. next slides
SDO_GTYPE
Defines the geometry type Follow DOOT rule
SDO_SRID SRID = Spatial Reference system ID More than 1000 different systems A common value: 8307
– "Longitude/Latitude WGS84" – Used by GPS – Navteq and TeleAtlas data are WGS84-
encoded All geometries must have the same SRID Different layers can have different SRID Automatic conversion when querying
SDO_POINT and SDO_ODRINATES
Example-Point
1. SQL> INSERT INTO geometry_examples values2. (3. ‘POINT’4. ‘'2-dimensional Point at coordinates’ 5. SDO_GEOMETRY6. (7. 2001, 8. 8307, 9. SDO_POINT_TYPE10. (11. -79, 12. 37, 13. NULL 14. ),15. NULL,16. NULL17. )18. );
SQL> CREATE TABLE geometry_examples(name VARCHAR2(100),description VARCHAR2(100),geom SDO_GEOMETRY);

Example 2- PolygonSQL> INSERT INTO geometry_examples VALUES('POLYGON','2-D polygon connecting A(Xa, Ya), B(Xb, Yb), C(Xc, Yc), D(Xd, Yd)',SDO_GEOMETRY(2003, -- SDO_GTYPE: D00T.

Other spatial functions-Oracle Spatial Spatial query from SQL Inbuilt geo-coding services available for know
address All types of spatial operations can be performed
using SQL such as joining, counting and relate. Metadata loading option. Network analysis such routing, directions Visualization in Map viewer Spatial analysis such as buffering, nearest neighbor,
within distance, and contains.
Benefits
Summary
Useful tool to add spatial features into existing database
No extra programming skills necessary No need to purchase GIS software's Single database No cost feature for Oracle Application Server
to view the maps Supports all types of geometry such as
raster, lines, polygons
