Overview
The IBM® Informix® Geodetic DataBlade™ enables you to manage geospatial information referenced by latitude-longitude coordinates.
Combined with Informix, the Geodetic DataBlade supports global space- and time-based queries without limitations inherent in map projections; it is well-suited for use with global datasets and applications.
Manages spatial data using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technologies.
Ensures precision and accuracy — engineered 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.
