It looks like nemesis stores geometry as ASCII text. Which means it would be SLOW to put stuff in and get stuff out of the database (atof and sprint are the, ahem, nemesis of speed).
I got my information from reading the source file SQLiteDatabase.cpp (http://nemesis-code.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/src/database/SQLiteDatabase.cpp), not sure if that was the right place to look. Traian From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sampson, David Sent: Monday, January 14, 2008 3:14 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [OSGeo-Discuss] Open Geo Database Hey Folks, Just wondering if there is still thought out there from the previous thread about a portable and open geodatabase. I came across the nemesis project "an experimental finite element code. Utilizes SQLite to store, handle and retrieve geometry and analysis data. " http://www.nemesis-project.org/index.php/Main_Page Thought that might be a good place to start that is already using geometry in sqlite. As for software adoptions it looks like GRASS already has an SQLITE driver. QGIS looks hopeful. Here is a GRASS/QGIS-SQLITE tutorial http://whatnick.blogspot.com/2007/12/using-sqlite-with-qgis-grass-toolbox.html GDAL has some SQLITE http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_sqlite.html Just some more info for the fire.
