The LuciadLightspeed Database Connectors component provides support for seamlessly integrating DB2 Spatial and Geodetic databases into LuciadLightspeed applications.
The DB2 Spatial Extender and the Geodetic Data Management Feature are extensions for the DB2 database system. They introduce additional SQL types for representing various types of geometries. These can be inserted as single entities into the spatial columns, which can co-exist with traditional non-spatial columns. The extensions then provide additional functions for indexing and querying the spatial data.
The IBM manual DB2 Spatial Extender and Geodetic Data Management Feature, User’s Guide and Reference provides all the necessary information on setting up, maintaining, and using spatial databases. This page explains how spatial data in DB2 can be accessed from LuciadLightspeed.
