Beschreibung
This book shows readers how to use the increasingly powerful features that are built into the Oracle database for storing and analyzing location-based data. Targeted at designers and programmers of geographic information systems, Pro Oracle Spatial for Oracle Database 11g attacks the increasingly important intersection of Oracle and spatial data. The authors are key players on the team that develops the Oracle Spatial feature set. Ravi Kothuri is a member of Oracle's Spatial development team. Albert Godfrind consults widely with Oracle clients on the implementation of Oracle Spatial, develops training courses, and presents frequently at conferences. Together they have crafted a technically sound and authoritative fountain of information on working with spatial data in the Oracle database.
