Would you like to know where your key customers are located? Are you looking to target your offerings to a specific and profitable demographic niche? Whether you are administering utilities or routing a fleet, analyzing customer behavior or managing natural resources, the IBM Informix Spatial DataBlade module affords the ability to jointly access and analyze location-based and core business data extending intelligence and decision-making capabilities for an edge in today's marketplace. A no-charge component of the IBM Informix Dynamic Server, IBM Informix Spatial DataBlade module provides one of the lowest cost-of-ownership and highest performance spatial solutions in the industry.
Key business decisions frequently involve location and proximity. Although many organizations have made significant investments in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and third-party spatial data applications, they cannot fully leverage the value of this information unless their database is spatially enabled. IBM Informix Spatial DataBlade module is an industry-standard (open-GIS compliant) spatial extension to the IBM IDS, which intelligently loads and manipulates complex geospatial and traditional data. It enables many industries and sectors to increase the power of existing location-based data and consequently enhances their ability to thrive and succeed. The following examples illustrate how IBM IDS with IBM Informix Spatial DataBlade module can help myriad industries realize a competitive advantage.
Not only can you receive unsurpassed industry-leading spatial technology at no additional cost, but you can accomplish more, with fewer people in less time, due to the IBM Informix Spatial DataBlade module's simple architecture and compliance with industry spatial standards.
R-tree indexing an innovative approach to accessing spatial, multidimensional and traditional data enables IBM IDS with IBM Informix Spatial DataBlade module to boost performance significantly offering a substantial competitive advantage.
IBM IDS with IBM Informix Spatial DataBlade module makes it possible for you to combine the location based data you already have with one of the most powerful databases in the industry to help you increase profits, expand market share and augment operational efficiencies.
Designed specifically for fast and efficient spatial data retrieval, the IBM Informix Spatial DataBlade module takes advantage of the R-tree index built into the IBM IDS database for accessing spatial and multidimensional data along with traditional data enhancing the efficiency of the relational database.
The IBM Informix Spatial DataBlade module provides support for the Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (ESRI) rich product set, in order to enable third-party products to work seamlessly on IBM IDS. ESRI.s ArcSDE complements the IBM Informix Spatial DataBlade module by providing quick access to the spatial data stored in IBM IDS and utilized for GIS software programs. The ArcSDE service automatically recognizes columns of IBM Informix Spatial DataBlade-based data, making it available to all ESRI supported applications and others capable of reading this format.
Our spatial technology can be accessed directly through standard SQL or it can be viewed and manipulated through third-party applications. This allows vendor selections for the development of client tools and applications to be based on price, quality and specific features.
Oninit ® have been developing datablades, bladelets and UDRs since the technology was introduced.
