- Import Data
Some additional notes from Farshad
- Esri.com search for census 200 tuger (Census)
The exacl URL where we downloaded the files is:Http://arcdata.esri.com/data/tiger2000/tiger_download.cfm
- Use second pull down menu to select and download (Georgia ).
- Count 2000
- Line Features-roads
- Water polygons
- See CD for some of the files we have.
- Java User applications ** and ** importer Java program need the following jars:
- From:/productname/J2EE/home/applications/mapviewer/web/WEB-INF/lib
Mvclient. Jar(Size 134 K)
- From: C:/Oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/MD/lib
Sdoapi. Jar(Size 14 K)
- You need a patched sdoutl. Jar. To get this go:
- Http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/spatial/index.html
- Dounload the Java kit for the "Oracle Java shapefile converter"
- In this page there is also a ReadMe file.
- The kit contains the patchedSdoutl. JarThat you need:
- Use to compile/execute your app
- Use to compile/execute the converter.
- It also contains a sample converter file to convert Shape files (from ESRI) into spatial files (Oracle format ).
- From: C:/Oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/jdbc/lib (where I installed Oracle)
Ojdbc14.jar(Size 1501 K)
- Create indexes in the database that the mapviewer needs:
NoteDo this after you import the data in your DB.
- Log in to mapdb.
- "Tables"
- In "Object Name" Enter ga_counties (see the importer file on how it names this)
- Actions-> Create Index
- Provide a name: county_geom_idx
- Click OK
- Go back and click on the radio "create index on one or more non-spatial columns"
- County ...... value 1
