Description

The IBM DB2 Spatial Extender (Spatial Extender) stores, accesses, manages, and analyzes spatial data that you can query. The Spatial Extender works with spatial visualization tools. This enables you to gather spatial data, such as geographic data, and attach non-spatial business data attributes to it.

IBM DB2 Spatial Extender is incorporated into the IBM DB2 Universal Database. Spatial data consists of values that denote the location of objects and areas with respect to one another.

An estimated 80% of all data has embedded spatial characteristics. This data can be exploited to formulate queries containing relevant parameters.
