DB2 Version 10.1 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows
DB2SE_USA_GEOCODER is no longer supported. Also, it is no longer installed with DB2® Spatial Extender.
The DB2SE_USA_GEOCODER is a sample geocoder that translates United States addresses into ST_Point data. In previous releases, it was installed as a component of the DB2 Spatial Extender and automatically registered. The geocoder was supported only on a limited number of operating systems. The reference data for this geocoder was developed in 2002 as a way to provide an example for customers. Providing an update to that reference data would result in licensing fees for customers that want to use it.
DB2 Spatial Extender supports vendor-supplied and user-supplied geocoders. With these geocoders, you are free to use different input or output than that of DB2SE_USA_GEOCODER. Also, you can choose a geocoder that is supported in the operating system of your choice.
Use vendor-supplied and user-supplied geocoders. For details about how to use them, see How to use a geocoder or Integrating Custom Geocoders with the DB2 Spatial Extender.
