基本操作比较全面，包括建表、建索引和查询。

Step1. 创建一张表，其中shape用来存放空间数据

CREATE TABLE mylake (

feature_id NUMBER PRIMARY KEY,

name VARCHAR2(32),

shape MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY);

Step2. 在user_sdo_geom_metadata表中插入新记录，用于描述空间字段INSERT INTO user_sdo_geom_metadata VALUES (

'mylake',    //---表名    'shape',    //---字段名    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ARRAY(

MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('X', 0, 100, 0.05),    //---X维最小，最大值和容忍度。        MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('Y', 0, 100, 0.05)    //---Y维最小，最大值和容忍度    ),

NULL    //---坐标系，缺省为笛卡尔坐标系

);

Step3. 创建空间索引CREATE INDEX mylake_idx ON mylake(shape)

INDEXTYPE IS MDSYS.SPATIAL_INDEX

Step4. 插入空间数据Oracle Spatial用MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY来存储空间数据,定义为：CREATE TYPE sdo_geometry AS OBJECT (

SDO_GTYPE NUMBER,

SDO_SRID NUMBER,

SDO_POINT SDO_POINT_TYPE,

SDO_ELEM_INFO MDSYS.SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY,

SDO_ORDINATES MDSYS.SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY);

SDO_GTYPE：用四个数字定义了所有的形状第一位:维数            第二位:线性表示。用于3，4维数据，二维为0

最后两位:

ValueGeometryDescription

00

UNKNOWN_GEOMETRY

Spatial ignores this value

01

POINT

A single point element

02

LINE or CURVE

Contains one line string element that may be linear, curved or both

03

POLYGON

Contains one polygon element with or without other polygon elements in it

04

COLLECTION

A heterogeneous collection of elements

05

MULTIPOINT

Contains one or more points

06

MULTILINE or MULTICURVE

Contains one or more line string elements

07

MULTIPOLYGON

Contains multiple polygon elements that maybe disjoint

SDO_SRID：坐标系，NULL为笛卡尔坐标系。SDO_POINT：Oracle Spatial也可定义单个的点，SDO_POINT的定义:

CREATE TYPE sdo_point_type AS OBJECT (X NUMBER,Y NUMBER,Z NUMBER);如果是二维，Z为NULL。SDO_ELEM_INFO：每三个值描述一个元素。

第一个值：第一个顶点在SDO_ORDINATES_ARR开始位置第二个值：元素类型

第三个值：顶点连接方式：1-通过直线连接，2-通过圆弧连接

定义为CREATE TYPE sdo_elem_info_array AS VARRAY (1048576) of NUMBER;SDO_ORDINATES：几何图形所有顶点列表。定义为

CREATE TYPE sdo_ordinate_array AS VARRAY (1048576) of NUMBER;

)

);

Step4. 查询Oracle Spatial查询数据包括二个处理过程：

1.只通过索引查询候选项。通过函数SDO_FILTER实现：SDO_FILTER(geometry1 MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY, geometry2 MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY, params VARCHAR2)geometry1：必须是被索引的几何数据

geometry2：不一定是表中的空间字段，也不要求被索引

params：Filter类型

querytype=WINDOW：geometry2不要求来自表

querytype=JOIN：geometry2必须来自表

SELECT name boat_name

FROM mylake t

WHERE feature_id = 12

AND SDO_FILTER(t.shape, mdsys.sdo_geometry(2003,NULL,NULL,

mdsys.sdo_elem_info_array(1,1003,1),

mdsys.sdo_ordinate_array(2,2, 5,2, 5,5, 2,5, 2,2)),

'querytype=WINDOW') = 'TRUE';

2.再检查每个候选项是否和条件精确匹配。通过函数SDO_RELATE实现：SDO_RELATE(geometry1 MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY, geometry2 MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY, params VARCHAR2)

params：masktype类型

DISJOINT— the boundaries and interiors do not intersect

TOUCH— the boundaries intersect but the interiors do not intersect

OVERLAPBDYDISJOINT— the interior of one object intersects the boundary and interior of the other object, but the two boundaries do not intersect. This relationship occurs, for example, when a line originates outside a polygon and ends inside that polygon.

OVERLAPBDYINTERSECT— the boundaries and interiors of the two objects intersect

EQUAL— the two objects have the same boundary and interior

CONTAINS— the interior and boundary of one object is completely contained in the interior of the other object

COVERS— the interior of one object is completely contained in the interior of the other object and their boundaries intersect

INSIDE— the opposite of CONTAINS. A INSIDE B implies B CONTAINS A.

COVEREDBY— the opposite of COVERS. A COVEREDBY B implies B COVERS A.

ON— the interior and boundary of one object is on the boundary of the other object (and the second object covers the first object). This relationship occurs, for example, when a line is on the boundary of a polygon.

ANYINTERACT— the objects are non-disjoint.
