Geospatial Data Types in SQL Server 2012 Leonard Lobel
The geospatial capabilities in SQL Server are not only powerful, but easy and fun to use! In this session, learn how to integrate location-awareness into your own applications with the geometry and geography data types.
Spatial Data “Stretches Out” in SQL Server 2012 Bob Beauchemin
The addition of spatial data to SQL Server 2008 is one of the most important in terms of integration in line-of-business applications. This talk will discuss the new features and performance enhancements in SQL Server 2012.
Fast Track to Spatial Reporting Jason Thomas
A 1hr session jam packed with demos on SSRS Spatial reporting
Automating SSAS cube documentation using SSRS, DMV and Spatial Data Alex Whittles
This session will show how to use DMVs (data management views) to query the OLAP cube structure, and then use SSRS to create a set of interactive reports including the BUS matrix, and using spatial data to generate automated star schemas.
Google Maps? Build your own Mapping, Geocoding, and Routing service Alastair Aitchison
SQL Server spatial features have not yet made it into mainstream usage and many developers still ask "But *why* would I use them?". In this session, I hope to answer that question by replicating the functionality of Google Maps using only SQL Server.
The (Geospatial) Shapes of Things to Come Simon Munro
A data professionals introduction to spatial data concepts and how they are implemented in SQL Server
Where the bl**dy h*** are you? (Spatial Data Visualisation) Rob Farley
A look at spatial data visualisation, including the maps in SSRS 2008 R2, handling shapefiles for those of us who have to deal with maps outside the USA, geocoding addresses with Bing, using the Silverlight Bing Maps control, and even PivotViewer.
You can create UK maps with SSRS 2008 R2 Robert Edgson
Corporate data is expensive to create, expensive to report. Adding free data sources and mapping can lift the simplest of reports to a stunning presentation.
Creating High Performance Spatial Databases Alastair Aitchison
So you heard about the new spatial functionality in SQL Server 2008, rushed back to your database and added geography and geometry columns to all your tables, eager to create the next Google Earth-beating application. You then click the Execute button and wait. And wait. And wait some more. (You get the idea). Spatial data is a rather unique beast, and designing efficient spatial queries requires specific techniques when compared to other, more traditional types of data. In this session, we look at how the SQL Server database engine satisfies spatial queries, the theory behind spatial indexes, demonstrate the effects of altering the bounding box, use the spatial system DMVs and stored procedures to your spatial database
