IBM DB2 Geodetic Extender

Overview The IBM DB2 Geodetic Extender - an optional feature of IBM DB2 Universal Database, Enterprise Edition - is best used for global data sets and applications. It has the capability to manage geospatial information referenced by latitude-longitude coordinates, support global spatial queries without the limitations inherent in map projections and help achieve high precision regardless of global location. This extension expands spatial analysis beyond the flat plane-based DB2 Spatial Extender.
