[Geoserver-users] GeoServer with oracle (not spatial)

2012-03-08 Thread Guntu, Ashok (IS) (Contr)
Hi,
  I am new to GeoServer and am trying to create a layer using the data I have 
in oracle 10g database.  I am able to connect to my database and see all my 
tables.  I am also able to create a view.  But anywhere in the documentation, I 
was unable to find what kind of view/table is required to create a layer out of 
it.  I have used a table with columns like latitude and longitude and tried to 
create a layer but was not successful.  Is there any documentation which tells 
me what the data model should be.

Any help is appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

Ashok

Rahkonen,
  Thanks for the response.  But I believe SDO_GEOMETRY is not a type in oracle 
10g.  That is probably supported in Spatial.  Am i right?

Thanks
Ashok

Hi,

You must have geometries in a column of type SDO_GEOMETRY.  You can alter your 
existing table and populate the sdo_geometry field from your x and y columns 
with a SQL query. But if you have never heard about sdo_geometry before I would 
recommend to use a few days by reading Oracle Spatial documents.
