DBMS enhancements for GIS

ü  GIS were based on Proprietary data models in mid 1990’s.

ü  They are all file based models.

ü  Creates an inherent problem of data sharing.

ü  To overcome this , Spatial features are included.

ü  Still had a problem of limited scalability and inefficient for data recovery and backups.

ü  3 types of DBMS are evolved. They are;
Ø  Relational (RDBMS),
Ø  Object (ODBMS),

Ø  Object-relational (ORDBMS).
