SQL Server Spaces Out • Integrate location awareness into any application • Long been the domain of sophisticated GIS applications • GIS • A system for capturing, storing, analyzing, and managing data and associated attributes which are spatially referenced to the earth • Allow a user to interact with information that is relevant to locations that they care about: • Home, work, school, or vacation destinations • Two geospatial models • Planar • Geodetic
Spatial Data Types • Two spatial models = Two system CLR types • geometry • Planar (flat) model • Flat 2-dimensional Cartesian Coordinate system • X and Y coordinates with uniform units of measure • Use for mapping small areas • geography • Geodetic (round-earth) model • Latitude and longitude • Use for larger mapping where land mass is too big to fit on one planar projection
Planar Spatial Model • Two-Dimensional Surface • X and Y coordinates on an arbitrary plane • Flat Earth Projection • To work with geospatial data on a 2D surface, a projection is created to flatten the geographical objects on the spheroid • Example: Planar Model based on Mercator Projection Square KM: - Antarctica = 13 million - Greenland = 2 million - N. America = 24 million - Africa = 30 million Greenland North America Africa Antarctica
Geodetic Spatial Model • Accurate geographic measurements • Locations on planet surface described by latitude and longitude angles • Ellipsoidal sphere • Latitude = angle N/S of the equator • Longitude = angle E/W of the Prime Meridian
Spatial Data Standards • Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) • International standards body • Microsoft belongs to the OGC • SQL Server 2008 uses the OGC’s Simple Feature Access standards • OpenGIS Simple Feature Interface Standards (SFS) • A well-defined way for applications to store and access spatial data in relational databases • Described using vector elements; such as points, lines and polygons • Three ways to import geospatial data • Well-Known Text (WKT) • Well-Known Binary (WKB) • Geographic Markup Language (GML)
Well-Known Text (WKT) • WKT examples: • POINT(6 10) • POINT(-111.06687 45.01188) • LINESTRING(3 4,10 50,20 25) • POLYGON((1 1,5 1,5 5,1 5,1 1),(2 2, 3 2, 3 3, 2 3,2 2)) • POLYGON((-75.17031 39.95601, -75.16786 39.95778,-75.17921 39.96874, -75.18441 39.96512,-75.17031 39.95601)) • MULTIPOINT(3.5 5.6,4.8 10.5) • MULTILINESTRING((3 4,10 50,20 25),(-5 -8,-10 -8,-15 -4)) • GEOMETRYCOLLECTION(POINT(4 6),LINESTRING(4 6,7 10)) • CIRCULARSTRING(1 5, 6 2, 7 3)
Geospatial Methods • STArea • STBuffer • STCentroid • STDifference • STDimension • STDistance • STEnvelope • STGeomFromText • STIntersection • STIntersects • STPointFromText, STLineFromText, STPolyFromText • STPointFromWKB, STLineFromWKB, STPolyFromWKB • STSymDifference • STUnion • GeomFromGml • Parse • ToString • and more (about 70 total)
0,0 150,0 300,0 50,50 100,100 0,150 150,150 300,150 20,180 180,180 300,300 150,300
Spatial Improvements InSQL Server 2012 • Circular Arcs • CircularString • CompoundCurve • CurvePolygon • All existing methods work on circular objects • New spatial methods • BufferWithCurves • STNumCurves, STCurveN • STCurveToLine • CurveToLineWithTolerance • IsValidDetailed • HasZ, HasM, AsBinaryZM • ShortestLineTo • UnionAggregate, EnvelopeAggregate, CollectionAggregate, ConvexHullAggregate • MinDbCompatibilityLevel
Spatial Improvements InSQL Server 2012 • Improved Precision • Constructions and relations use 48 bits of precision (previously 27 bits) • geography Enhancements • Support for objects larger than a logical hemisphere (“FullGlobe”) • Support for new and previous “geometry-only” methods • New SRID • Spatial reference ID 104001 (sphere of radius 1) • Performance Improvements • Better tuning and hints • Auto Grid indexing with 8 levels (previously 4 levels) • Other Improvements • New histogram stored procedures • Support for persisted computed columns
