GIS Resources

External resources and further reading on GIS and spatial data in MariaDB.

GIS stands for Geographic Information System.

Further reading:

• OGC Simple Feature Access - the Open Geospatial Consortium's OpenGIS Simple Features Specifications For SQL.

• Geo/Spatial Search with MySQL - a presentation by Alexander Rubin, from the MySQL Conference in 2006.

There are no differences between GIS in stable versions of MariaDB and GIS in MySQL. There are, however, some extensions and enhancements being worked on.
