ABSTRACT: Geographical Information System is a new branch of information system in which system (GIS software) containing geographic data and converting useful information. The ability to integrate and analyze data organized in multiple thematic layers is a heart of Geographical Information System. Hardware, software, procedure, data and users are different components in which data is essential and core of GIS because without data GIS cannot work and cannot display the result.

The geo-spatial database is a new technology in database systems which allow storing, retrieving and maintaining the spatial data. In this paper, we seek to design and implement a geo-spatial database for managing the traveler’s demand with the aid of open-source tools and object-relational database package. The building of geo-spatial database starts with the design of data model in terms of conceptual, logical and physical data model and then the design has been implemented into an object-relational database. The geo-spatial database is developed to facilitate the storage of geographic information (where things are) with descriptive information (what things are like) into the vector model. The developed vector geo-spatial data can be accessed and rendered in the form of map to create the awareness of existence of various services and facilities for prospective travelers and visitors.

Wizards are very useful for creating a good user experience. In all businesses, interactive sessions are most beneficial. To improve the user experience, wizards in Odoo provide an interactive session. For creating wizards, we can use transient models or abstract models. This gives features of a model class except the data storing. Transient and abstract models have permanent database persistence. For them, database tables are made, and the records in such tables are kept until they are specifically erased.

The GIS Database Chapter 7,8 & 9 1 The backbone of GIS is good data accurate enough to accomplish its objectives. Geographic data are organized in a geographic database. There are two important components of this geographic database: geographic position (spatial data)-where is it? attributesor properties(attributedata)-what things are? GIS data types of are grouped into three classes: i. Spatial data (where?): used to describe location, shape, size, and all kinds features of spatial entities. GIS Data Concepts
2.
ii. Non-spatial data (what, when, in what amount?): also called attribute or characteristic data, Also known as descriptive data There are fundamental differences between them: spatial data are generally multi-dimensional and autocorrelated. iii. Metadata: is data about data and contains information about scale, accuracy, projection/datum, data source, manipulations, how to acquire data.
3.
4.
5.
iv. Area (polygon) Used to represent two dimensional features. Polygonal features, such as city boundaries and river catchments can be stored as a closed loop of coordinates. Polygonal data is the most common type of data in natural resource applications. Examples of polygonal data include forest stands, soil classification areas, administrative boundaries, and climate zones. Vector Representations (Contd..,) Raster Model Vector Model Advantages: Simple data structure Easy and efficient overlaying Compatible with RS imagery High spatial variability is efficiently represented Simple for own programming Disadvantages: Need high computer storage Errors in perimeter and shape Difficult network analysis Inefficient in projection transformations Loss of information when using large cells Advantages: Compact data structure Efficient for network analysis Efficient for projection transformation Accurate map output. Disadvantages: Complex data structure Difficult overlay operations High spatial variability is inefficiently represented Not compatible with RS imagery Raster vs Vector (Contd..,)
6.
Database Definitions What is a database? based system. What is a database management system (DBMS)? A software system designed to: Organize that data in a flexible manner, Provide tools to add, modify or delete data from the database, Query the data, Produce reports summarizing selected contents. 11 A database can be defined as: A collection of related data/information stored in a structured format. Computerized collection of structured data stored in one or more tables as electronic filing cabinet. A collection of inter-related data stored together to serve one or more applications. A combination of software and hardware that makes it possible and convenient to perform tasks that involve handling large amounts of data. The data are stored together with as little redundancy as possible to serve one or more users. Database
7.
What is the ultimate purpose of a database management system? Data Information Knowledge Action Is to transform 13 Features of a DBMS Database Management Systems provide features to maintain database: Transaction management - A transaction comprises a unit of work performed within a DBMS against a database, and treated in a coherent and reliable way independent of other transactions. Transactions in a database environment have two main purposes: To provide isolation from other transactions. Transactions must pass the ACID test (atomic, consistent, isolated and durable 14
8.
Features of a DBMS Database Management Systems provide features to maintain database: Concurrency control - ensures that correct results for concurrent operations are generated, while getting those results as quickly as possible. Backup and recovery Provides a language for the creation and querying of the database. A language for writing application programs Lecture 8 15 DATA BASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM: Dale and McLaughlin (1988) define a DBMS as a computer program to control the storage, retrieval and modification of data (in a database) Stern and Stern (1993), a DBMS will allow users to joint, manipulate or otherwise access the data in any number of database files.
9.
Spatial database is a collection of spatially referenced data that acts as a model of reality. To create and maintain a computer database, you need a database program, often called: DBMS is a software package that allows the user to set up, create and maintain a database. GIS is a DBMS specifically designed for processing of spatial and related attribute data.
10.
Handling large amounts of data. Backup and recovery functions to avoid loss of data. Declarative query language for retrieval of data. Collecting all data at a single location reduces duplication. redundancy and Maintenance costs decrease because of better organization and decreased data duplication. Applications become data independent so that multiple applications can use the same data. User knowledge can be transferred between applications more easily because the database remains constant. Data sharing is facilitated and a corporate view of data can be provided to all managers and users. Security and standards for data and data access can be established and enforced. Why Use a Database? Selecting a Database Management System Database management systems (or DBMSs) can be divided into two categories: Desktop databases are oriented toward single-user applications and reside on standard personal computers (hence the term desktop). Server databases contain mechanisms to ensure the reliability and consistency of data and are geared toward multi-user applications. Lecture 8 20
