Description: ------------ Hibernate Spatial is a extension to the Hibernate Object Relational Mapping Java library for handling geographic data. It abstracts away from the specific way a database supports geographic data, and provides a standardized, cross-database interface to geographic data storage and query functions. Hibernate Spatial supports most of the functions of the OGC Simple Feature Specification. Supported databases are: Oracle 10g/11g and Postgresql/Postgis. Best regards Your FreeGIS Core Team.
