Informix Geodetic DataBlade Module


Information Management software
Overview
  • Combined with Informix® Dynamic Server, the Informix Geodetic DataBlade™ module provides the ability to manage geospatial information referenced by latitude-longitude coordinates -- supporting global space- and time-based queries without limitations inherent in map projections.

  • Manages spatial data using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technologies. The Informix Geodetic DataBlade module is best used for global datasets and applications.

  • Ensures precision and accuracy -- engineered (from inception) to treat Earth as a globe, not a flat plane.

  • Uses the R-tree index on integrated space, time and numeric dimensions for lightning performance.

  • Includes database replication of geospatial data.

  • Provides a robust, well-crafted C-language application programming interface (API), so you can build new functions that use the same data structures and internal interfaces used by SQL functions already provided.


System Requirements

Informix Geodetic DataBlade Module runs on most systems that have a UNIX®, Linux® or Windows® operating system. For UNIX and Linux, we recommend a minimum of 34MB of disk space, 256MB of memory and one CPU. For Windows, we recommend a minimum of 34MB of disk space, 256MB of memory and one CPU. Many applications will require substantially larger systems. Your IBM sales team will work with you to optimize the hardware required for your application.
