Creating Empty Spatial Layers in RDBMS Cursor-Datasets

Users can create empty spatial layers in RDBMS Cursor-Datasets by either:

• Exporting an empty overlay using the Cadcorp SIS Export to Server utility
  
• Creating a spatial layer in an RDBMS Cursor-Dataset manually. This is a task for the database administrator. The benefits include defining the table exactly to suit your requirements. .

The following tasks need to be completed:

• Create the table including a column of type mdsys.sdo_geometry.
  
• Ensure that the table is registered in the RDBMS Cursor-Dataset metadata.
  
• Create a spatial index for the table
