Key Features
Spatial data locator
Automatically finds all 2D, 2.5D, 3D and 4D spatial data that an oracle schema owns or, if selected, all 2D, 2.5D, 3D and 4D spatial data that a schema has been granted access to. Using multi-thread processing, analysis on even large datasets can be executed quickly and efficiently.
Reporting
Displays the relevant information using colour coding to highlight potential issues in the data in relation to spatial index status and metadata.
Adjustable interface
Users can adjust elements of the interface, such as colours and font sizes, to suit their accessibility requirements and preferences.
Easy access
The software is free to download with the simple provision of a valid email address. Once installed it is easy to access via the desktop of the user's Windows PC.
Creation and deletion of metadata
Users can create or delete metadata as required.
Spatial reference identification (SRID) amendment
The software allows the SRID to be changed and an up-to-date list of known co-ordinate systems is included to provide options.
Creation and deletion of spatial index
Users can create and delete the spatial index for a schema as required.
Name spatial index
Users can name or customise any of the spatial indexes to give them more flexibility and improve data management.
Dashboards
Users can view a summary of the health of their data in easy-to-view pie charts.
Primary key
Users can create a primary key for a table.
Adjustable interface
Easy-to-read buttons on the taskbar can be used to mask and unmask certain elements of the interface, creating an on screen environment tailored to the users specific requirements or level of expertise.
View geometries
An approximation of a geometry is included and has additional features for validation such as co-ordinate information, vertices and directional arrows, all of which can be switched on and off as per user preference. A simple data (SDO) form of a single geometry can also be produced, containing explanatory comments.
Analyse geometries
Through a data view panel, users can view approximations of their geometries and easily spot faults such as self-intersecting polygons. A copy can then be printed off for correction purposes.
Error reporting
The application will report on fundamental geometry errors allowing a user to export a list of errors for correction (as a csv file via the user's editor).
Double digitising resolution
Problems relating to co-existing points can be resolved within the interface.
Advantages
Radius Check is less than 1Mb in size, making it quick and easy to install with minimum disruption to users. It allows simple administration, validation and management of spatial data held in Oracle Spatial Databases. The simplicity of the product means that it can be used by all spatial data users, even those without a significant level of technical expertise. It can also be used as a learning tool for those new to Oracle Spatial Schemas, which negates the need for expensive training or support packages. The simplicity also means that tasks can be carried out more effectively and efficiently, saving time and money.
