I'm wondering if
there is any interest in having/developing spatial extensions for Derby? I
can see value in having Derby available as an embedded database for working
with large spatial datasets.
I expect that adding
spatial to Derby would involve:
- defining spatial
types
- implementing a
spatial index (probably an R-tree)
- adding spatial
query and manipulation functions
As the developer of
the JTS Topology Suite API, I would be happy to offer this package as a
component of a spatial implementation in Derby. Feel free to contact
me if this is of interest.
