Oracle Spatial is changing the way spatial information is used in organizations. This book addresses: (1) the special nature of spatial data and its role in professional and consumer applications, (2) the issues in spatial data management such as modeling, storing, accessing, and analyzing spatial data; (3) the Oracle Spatial solution and the integration of spatial data into enterprise databases; and (4) how spatial information is used to understand business and support decisions, to manage customer relations, and to better serve private and corporate users.
