Methods of performing spatial analysis

You can perform spatial analysis by using SQL and spatial functions with any of the following programming environments:

• A geobrowser (for example, ESRI's ArcExplorer).

  For more information about using the ArcExplorer, refer to Using ArcExplorer, which is available on the ESRI Web site at http://www.esri.com .

• Interactive SQL statements.
• User-developed applications (for example, ODBC, JDBC, and embedded SQL).

Applications can be launched from the DB2 Command Center, the DB2 Command Window, or the command line processor.
