 |  - 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.
