History

Updated by Tim Sutton almost 5 years ago

Changed to enhancement priority as major should be used for implemented features which are broken. I'm going to flag this for attention of Godofredo who is working on a generic sql access layer via gdal. Is MsSqlSpatial supported via gdal? Please advise.

Thanks

Tim

I'm also setting this for milestone 2.0.0 pending feedback.

Gdal/ogr does not have a driver for mssqlspatial but mssqlspatial databases can be read using ogr odbc driver

It seems that MySQL spatial extension is not widely used, not very actively developed: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/spatial-extensions.html
It is possible that spatial information can however be read through OGR: http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_mysql.html
I would suggest to close this ticket.

I also misread in the first place: It's about MS-SQL, not MySQL:

  • Status changed from New to Closed
  • Resolution set to upstream

I think this should be solved within GDAL/OGR, I do not see a point in writing a db provider for this. Please reopen if I'm wrong.
