Spatial 101 for raster data management using the Oracle Database

If you need to manage and efficiently use raster data, here is the session to attend! Many technologies capture or generate raster data and images: remote sensing, photogrammetry, geospatial thematic mapping ... Rasters are used in a wide variety of application areas: location-based services, geospatial image archiving and serving, environmental monitoring and assessment, geological engineering and exploration, natural resource management, climate modeling, ocean floor surveying and mapping, defense, emergency response, telecommunications, transportation, urban planning, and homeland security. What is the session about? GeoRaster is a feature of the Oracle Database that lets you store, index, query, process, analyze, and serve georeferenced raster images and gridded data and its associated metadata. It provides native data types and an object-relational schema to store and manage multidimensional arrays, grid layers, and digital images that can be referenced to positions on the Earth's surface. What will you learn during this session ? - What are rasters and how they compare with vector data - The data structures used in the database to store rasters - How do we import rasters from files ? - How do we view rasters ? - How to we process and analyze rasters
