Where’s my data? An introduction to Spatial Queries in SQL Server 2008
It is reckoned that 80-90% of data has a spatial component to it. But what do we do with it now? At best, we constrain it to postcodes. Well, that would be great if we were delivering letters, but the majority of us aren’t. In this session we look at Spatial Queries in SQL Server to see how it works and what can be done with it.
Here's what Gary Short said about the session when he saw it: -
"Colin Mackay's Spatial Data talk last night really rocked! If you get the chance to see it you should."
