10 Multiple Coordinate systems exist Geographic (GEOGCS) –longitude/latitude Projected (PROJCS) –X,Y Geocentric (GEOCCS) –X,Y,Z Defined by several objects DATUM SPHEROID PRIMEM UNIT Geometry Concepts
11
11 What is coordinate data? Sets of values describing a particular location on a grid. Longitude/Latitude X,Y Z –Altitude or Depth value M –Measures 0,0 10 y 20 x Geometry Concepts
12
12 Projections Transform locations of features on the Earth’s surface to a two dimensional surface. –Mathematical –Preserving Shape –Preserving Accuracy area distance location Geometry Concepts
13
13 Geometry Concepts Conic A portion of the Earth's surface is projected onto a cone. The cone is then flattened Mercator The Earth's sphere is flattened out. In this projections the further away from the equator a point is, the larger it seems

17 Geometry Concepts Basic Methods on Geometries Dimension ( ):Integer GeometryType ( ):String SRID ( ):Integer Envelope ( ):Geometry IsEmpty ( ):Integer IsSimple ( ):Integer Boundary ( ):Geometry AsText ( ):String AsBinary ( ):Binary
18
18 Geometry Concepts Dimension used to classify shapes three values can be used –0 (has neither length nor area) points, multipoints –1 (has length) linestrings, multilinestrings –2 (has area) polygons, multipolygons
19
19 Geometry Concepts IsSimple Some subclasses may be simple or non-simple, while others are always simple multipoints, linestrings, multilinestrings are non-simple if their interiors intersect Non-simpleSimple Non-simpleSimple
20
20 Geometry Concepts IsEmpty A geometry is empty if it does not have any points –An empty set An empty geometry has an instantiable type An empty geometry has an SRID –The set is empty but has the same SRID as the column being queried.
21
21 Geometry Concepts SRID (Spatial Reference ID) Each ordinate of a geometry is stored within a 32-bit integer The x offset, y offset and system units determine the limits (“box”) of the coordinate reference system Spatial functions require that geometries have the same SRID –Geometries stored in a spatial column must all have the same SRID
22
22 Geometry Concepts Geometry types Point LineString Polygon MultiPoint MultiLineString MultiPolygon
23
23 Geometry Concepts Point Represent distinct locations –wells, landmarks, elevations... Dimension of 0 Single XY coordinate Always simple Null boundary –all “interior” interior
24
24 Geometry Concepts LineString Represent linear feature –rivers, roads, power lines... Dimension of 1 –linestrings have length String of coordinates defining a linear interpolated path Simple if it does not intersect its interior simplenon-simple
25
25 Geometry Concepts LineString continued … Boundary is the endpoints Boundary is null if the linestring is closed LineString is a ring if the linestring is closed and simple boundary interior
26
26 Geometry Concepts Polygon A surface stored as a sequence of points that define an exterior ring and possibly one or more interior rings The rings cannot overlap Rings can intersect at a tangent Always simple interior boundary
27
27 Geometry Concepts Polygon continued … The rings are the boundary Polygons have area and length (perimeter) Define water bodies, parcels of land... Polygon with a hole. Outer coordinates are expressed counter-clockwise, inner coordinates clockwise.
28
28 Geometry Concepts MultiPoint A collection of points Dimension of 0 Simple or non-simple Boundary is NULL Define broadcast patterns...
29
29 Geometry Concepts MultiLineString A collection of linestrings Dimension of 1 Has length Simple and non-simple Simple if endpoints of all elements intersect SimpleNon-SimpleSimple
30
30 Geometry Concepts MultiLineString continued … Boundary is the endpoints of all elements combined Boundary is null if all endpoints intersect other endpoints, in which case the MultiLineString is closed Define networks
31
31 Geometry Concepts MultiPolygon A collection of polygons Dimension of 2 Has area and perimeter Boundary is defined by the set of interior and exterior rings that form its elements
32
32 Geometry Concepts MultiPolygon continued … Always simple Rings cannot overlap Rings can intersect at a single tangent point
