This chapter explains the concepts and operations related to the Oracle Spatial network data model. It assumes that you are familiar with the following information:
The main topology concepts explained in Chapter 1, especially those related to nodes and links
The main Oracle Spatial concepts, data types, and operations, as documented in Oracle Spatial User's Guide and Reference
Although this chapter discusses some network-related terms as they relate to Oracle Spatial, it assumes that you are familiar with basic network data modeling concepts.
This chapter contains the following major sections:
Section 5.7, "Network Editing and Analysis Using a Network Memory Object"
Section 5.10, "Network Data Model Application Programming Interface"
Section 5.13, "README File for Spatial and Related Features"
In many applications, capabilities or objects are modeled as nodes and links in a network. The network model contains logical information such as connectivity relationships among nodes and links, directions of links, and costs of nodes and links. With logical network information, you can analyze a network and answer questions, many of them related to path computing and tracing. For example, for a biochemical pathway, you can find all possible reaction paths between two chemical compounds; or for a road network, you can find the following information:
What is the shortest (distance) or fastest (travel time) path between two cities?
What is the closest hotel to a specific airport, and how can I get there?
In additional to logical network information, spatial information such as node locations and link geometries can be associated with the network. This information can help you to model the logical information (such as the cost of a route, because its physical length can be directly computed from its spatial representation).
The Spatial network data model can be used can be used for large, complex networks. For example, Figure 5-1 shows New York City nodes and links, which have been defined using the network data model, displayed using the Network Editor demo tool (described in Section 5.12).
The generic data model and network analysis capability can model and analyze many kinds of network applications in addition to traditional geographical information systems (GIS). For example, in biochemistry, applications may need to model reaction pathway networks for living organisms; and in the pharmaceutical industry, applications that model the drug discovery process may need to model protein-protein interaction.
The network modeling capabilities of Spatial include schema objects and an application programming interface (API). The schema objects include metadata and network tables. The API includes a server-side PL/SQL API (the SDO_NET and SDO_NET_MEM packages) for creating, managing, editing, and analyzing networks in the database, and a middle-tier (or client-side) Java API for network editing and analysis.
This section summarizes the main steps for working with the network data model in Oracle Spatial. It refers to important concepts, structures, and operations that are described in detail in other sections.
There are two basic approaches to creating a network:
Let Spatial perform most operations, using procedures with names in the form CREATE_<network-type>_NETWORK. (See Section 5.2.1.)
Perform the operations yourself: create the necessary network tables and update the network metadata. (See Section 5.2.2.)
With each approach, you must insert the network data into the network tables. You can then use the network data model PL/SQL and Java application programming interfaces (APIs) to update the network and perform other operations. (The PL/SQL and Java APIs are described in Section 5.10.)
To create a network by letting Spatial perform most of the necessary operations, follow these steps:
Create the network using a procedure with a name in the form CREATE_<network-type>_NETWORK, where <network-type> reflects the type of network that you want to create:
SDO_NET.CREATE_SDO_NETWORK for a spatial network with non-LRS SDO_GEOMETRY objects
SDO_NET.CREATE_LRS_NETWORK for a spatial network with LRS SDO_GEOMETRY objects
SDO_NET.CREATE_TOPO_NETWORK for a spatial network with topology geometry (SDO_TOPO_GEOMETRY) objects
SDO_NET.CREATE_LOGICAL_NETWORK for a logical network that does not contain spatial information
Each of these procedures creates the necessary network data model tables (described in Section 5.8) and inserts a row with the appropriate network metadata information into the xxx_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA views (described in Section 5.9.1).
Each procedure has two formats: one format creates all network data model tables using default names for the tables and certain columns, and other format lets you specify names for the tables and certain columns. The default names for the network data model tables are <network-name>_NODE$, <network-name>_LINK$, <network-name>_PATH$, and <network-name>_PLINK$. The default name for cost columns in the network data model tables is COST, and the default name for geometry columns is GEOMETRY.
Insert data into the node and link tables, and if necessary into the path and path-link tables. (The node, link, path, and path-link tables are described in Section 5.8.)
Validate the network, using the SDO_NET.VALIDATE_NETWORK procedure.
For a spatial (SDO or LRS) network, insert the appropriate information into the USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view, and create spatial indexes on the geometry columns.
If you plan to use a view as a node, link, or path table, you must specify the view name for the TABLE_NAME column value when you insert information about the node, link, or path table in the USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view.
To create a network by performing the necessary operations yourself, follow these steps:
Create the node table, using the SDO_NET.CREATE_NODE_TABLE procedure. (The node table is described in Section 5.8.1.)
Insert data into the node table.
Create the link table, using the SDO_NET.CREATE_LINK_TABLE procedure. (The link table is described in Section 5.8.2).
Insert data into the link table.
Optionally, create the path table, using the SDO_NET.CREATE_PATH_TABLE procedure. (The path table is described in Section 5.8.3).
If you created the path table, create the path-link table, using the SDO_NET.CREATE_PATH_LINK_TABLE procedure. (The path-link table is described in Section 5.8.4).
If you created the path table and if you want to create paths, insert data into the table.
If you inserted data into the path table, insert the appropriate rows into the path-link table.
Insert a row into the USER_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA view with information about the network. (The USER_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA view is described in Section 5.9.1.)
If you plan to use a view as a node, link, path, or path-link table, you must specify the view name for the relevant columns when you insert information about the network in the USER_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA view.
For a spatial (SDO or LRS) network, insert the appropriate information into the USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view, and create spatial indexes on the geometry columns.
If you plan to use a view as a node, link, or path table, you must specify the view name for the TABLE_NAME column value when you insert information about the node, link, or path table in the USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view.
Validate the network, using the SDO_NET.VALIDATE_NETWORK function.
You can change the sequence of some of these steps. For example, you can create both the node and link tables first, and then insert data into each one; and you can insert the row into the USER_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA view before you create the node and link tables.
A network is a type of mathematical graph that captures relationships between objects using connectivity. The connectivity may or may not be based on spatial proximity. For example, if two towns are on opposite sides of a lake, the shortest path based on spatial proximity (a straight line across the middle of the lake) is not relevant if you want to drive from one town to the other. Instead, to find the shortest driving distance, you need connectivity information about roads and intersections and about the "cost" of individual links.
A network consists of a set of nodes and links. Each link (sometimes also called an edge or a segment) specifies two nodes.
A network can be directed (that is, by default, the start and end nodes determine link direction) or undirected (that is, links can be traversed in either direction).
The following are some key terms related to the network data model:
A link represents a relationship between two nodes. Within a directed network, any link can be bidirected (that is, able to be traversed either from the start node to the end node or from the end node to the start node) or unidirected (that is, able to be traversed only from the start node to the end node). Within an undirected network, all links are bidirected.
A path is an alternating sequence of nodes and links, beginning and ending with nodes, and usually with no nodes and links appearing more than once. (Repeating nodes and links within a path are permitted, but are rare in most network applications.)
A network is a set of nodes and links. A network is directed if the links that it contains are directed, and a network is undirected if the links that it contains are undirected.
A logical network contains connectivity information but no geometric information. This is the model used for network analysis. A logical network can be treated as a directed graph or undirected graph, depending on the application.
A spatial network contains both connectivity information and geometric information. In a spatial network, the nodes and links are SDO_GEOMETRY geometry objects without LRS information (an SDO network) or with LRS information (an LRS network), or SDO_TOPO_GEOMETRY objects (a topology geometry network).
In an LRS network, each node includes a geometry ID value and a measure value, and each link includes a geometry ID value and start and end measure values; and the geometry ID value in each case refers to an SDO_GEOMETRY object with LRS information. A spatial network can be directed or undirected, depending on the application.
A feature is an object of interest in a network application that is associated with a node or link. For example, in a transportation network, features include exits and intersections (mapped to nodes), and highways and streets (mapped to links).
Cost is a non-negative numeric attribute that can be associated with links or nodes for computing the minimum cost path, which is the path that has the minimum total cost from a start node to an end node. You can specify a single cost factor, such as driving time or driving distance for links, in the network metadata, and network analytical functions that examine cost will use this specified cost factor.
Duration is a non-negative numeric attribute that can be associated with links or nodes to specify a duration value for the link or node. The duration value can indicate a number of minutes or any other user-determined significance. You can specify a single duration factor, such as driving time for links, in the network metadata; however, if you use duration instead of cost to indicate elapsed time, network analytical functions that examine cost will not consider the specified duration factor.
State is a string attribute, either ACTIVE
or INACTIVE
, that is associated with links or nodes to specify whether or not a link or node will be considered by network analysis functions. For example, if the state of a node is INACTIVE
, any links from or to that node are ignored in the computation of the shortest path between two nodes. The state is ACTIVE
by default when a link or node is created, but you can set the state INACTIVE
.
Type is a string attribute that can be associated with links or nodes to specify a user-defined value for the type of a link or a node.
Temporary links, nodes, and paths exist only in a network memory object, and are not written to the database when the network memory object is written. For example, during a network analysis and editing session you might create temporary nodes to represent street addresses for shortest-path computations, but not save these temporary nodes when you save the results of editing operations.
Reachable nodes are all nodes that can be reached from a given node. Reaching nodes are all nodes that can reach a given node.
The degree of a node is the number of links to (that is, incident upon) the node. The in-degree is the number of inbound links, and the out-degree is the number of outbound links.
A spanning tree of a connected graph is a tree (that is, a graph with no cycles) that connects all nodes of the graph. (The directions of links are ignored in a spanning tree.) The minimum cost spanning tree is the spanning tree that connects all nodes and has the minimum total cost.
Networks are used in applications to find how different objects are connected to each other. The connectivity is often expressed in terms of adjacency and path relationships. Two nodes are adjacent if they are connected by a link. There are often several paths between any two given nodes, and you may want to find the path with the minimum cost.
This section describes some typical examples of different kinds of network applications.
In a typical road network, the intersections of roads are nodes and the road segments between two intersections are links. The spatial representation of a road is not inherently related to the nodes and links in the network. For example, a shape point in the spatial representation of a road (reflecting a sharp turn in the road) is not a node in the network if that shape point is not associated with an intersection; and a single spatial object may make up several links in a network (such as a straight segment intersected by three crossing roads). An important operation with a road network is to find the path from a start point to an end point, minimizing either the travel time or distance. There may be additional constraints on the path computation, such as having the path go through a particular landmark or avoid a particular intersection.
The subway network of any major city is probably best modeled as a logical network, assuming that precise spatial representation of the stops and track lines is unimportant. In such a network, all stops on the system constitute the nodes of the network, and a link is the connection between two stops if a train travels directly between these two stops. Important operations with a train network include finding all stations that can be reached from a specified station, finding the number of stops between two specified stations, and finding the travel time between two stations.
Utility networks, such as power line or cable networks, must often be configured to minimize the cost. An important operation with a utility network is to determine the connections among nodes, using minimum cost spanning tree algorithms, to provide the required quality of service at the minimum cost. Another important operation is reachability analysis, so that, for example, if a station in a water network is shut down, you know which areas will be affected.
Biochemical processes can be modeled as biochemical networks to represent reactions and regulations in living organisms. For example, metabolic pathways are networks involved in enzymatic reactions, while regulatory pathways represent protein-protein interactions. In this example, a pathway is a network; genes, proteins, and chemical compounds are nodes; and reactions among nodes are links. Important operations for a biochemical network include computing paths and the degrees of nodes.
Some network applications require representations at different levels of abstraction. For example, two major processes might be represented as nodes with a link between them at the highest level of abstraction, and each major process might have several subordinate processes that are represented as nodes and links at the next level down.
A network hierarchy enables you to represent a network with multiple levels of abstraction by assigning a hierarchy level to each node. (Links are not assigned a hierarchy level, and links can be between nodes in the same hierarchy level or in different levels.) The lowest (most detailed) level in the hierarchy is level 1, and successive higher levels are numbered 2, 3, and so on.
Nodes at adjacent levels of a network hierarchy have parent-child relationships. Each node at the higher level can be the parent node for one or more nodes at the lower level. Each node at the lower level can be a child node of one node at the higher level. Sibling nodes are nodes that have the same parent node.
Links can also have parent-child relationships. However, because links are not assigned to a hierarchy level, there is not necessarily a relationship between link parent-child relationships and network hierarchy levels. Sibling links are links that have the same parent link.
Figure 5-2 shows a simple hierarchical network, in which there are two levels.
As shown in Figure 5-2:
The top level (level 2) contains two nodes. Each node is the parent node of several nodes in the bottom level. The link between the nodes in the top level is the parent link of two links between nodes in the bottom level.
The bottom level (level 1) shows the nodes that make up each node in the top level. It also shows the links between nodes that are child nodes of each parent node in the top level, and two links between nodes that have different parent nodes.
The links between nodes in the bottom level that have different parent nodes are shown with dark connecting lines. These links are child links of the single link between the nodes in the top level in the hierarchy. (However, these two links in the bottom level could also be defined as not being child links of any parent link between nodes in a higher level.)
The parent-child relationships between each parent node and link and its child nodes and links are shown with dashed lines with arrowheads at both ends.
Although it is not shown in Figure 5-2, links can cross hierarchy levels. For example, a link could be defined between a node in the top level and any node in the bottom level. In this case, there would not be a parent-child relationship between the links.
Network constraints are restrictions defined on network analysis computations. For example, a network constraint might list a series of prohibited turns in a roads network due to one-way streets and "No Left Turn" signs, with each prohibited turn represented as a pair of links (a start link and an end link onto which a turn cannot be made from the start link). As another example, a network constraint might require that driving routes must not include toll roads or must not include expressways.
To create a network constraint, you must create a Java class that implements the constraint, and you must register the constraint by inserting a row for it in the USER_SDO_NETWORK_CONSTRAINTS view (described in Section 5.9.2). To apply a network constraint to a network analysis operation, specify the constraint using the constraint
parameter with the appropriate SDO_NET_MEM subprogram.
Examples of Java classes to implement network constraints are provided in the network data model demo files, which are described in Section 5.12. For example, the ProhibitedTurns.java
file creates a network constraint that defines a series of prohibited turns, and it then returns the shortest path between two nodes, first without applying the constraint and then applying the constraint.
This section describes how to perform network editing and analysis operations using a network memory object, which is a cache in virtual memory. You can load a network or a hierarchy level in a network into a network memory object, perform operations on network objects in the memory object, and then either discard any changes or write the changes to the network in the database.
Multiple network memory objects can exist at a time for a specified network, but only one can be updatable; any others must be read-only. For better performance, if you plan to use the network memory object only to retrieve information or to perform network analysis operations, make the network memory object read-only (that is, specify allow_updates=>'FALSE'
with the SDO_NET_MEM.NETWORK_MANAGER.READ_NETWORK procedure).
To work with a network memory object, you can use either the PL/SQL API (specifically, the SDO_NET_MEM package) or the Java API. Both APIs are introduced in Section 5.10.
In the network data model PL/SQL API, the subprograms in the SDO_NET package operate on the network in the database, and the subprograms in the SDO_NET_MEM package operate on the network memory object in the cache. For some network editing operations (such as adding a node, link, or path), you can use either an SDO_NET or SDO_NET_MEM procedure; however, if you are performing a large number of editing operations, using the cache (SDO_NET_MEM procedures) offers better performance. Most network operations, though, can be performed only by a subprogram in the SDO_NET or SDO_NET_MEM package, and in these cases your decision about whether to use a network memory object depends on your specific needs.
Example 5-1 uses a network memory object to add a new node and a new link to an existing network, perform a shortest path analysis, print the analysis results, and save the changes and analysis results in the database. These steps assume that a logical network named XYZ_NETWORK has already been created and populated using the statements shown in Example 5-5 in Section 5.11.4.
Example 5-1 Using a Network Memory Object for Editing and Analysis (PL/SQL)

The connectivity information for a spatial network is stored in two tables: a node table and a link table. In addition, path information can be stored in a path table and a path-link table. You can have Spatial create these tables automatically when you create the network using a CREATE_<network-type>_NETWORK procedure; or you can create these tables using the SDO_NET.CREATE_NODE_TABLE, SDO_NET.CREATE_LINK_TABLE, SDO_NET.CREATE_PATH_TABLE, and SDO_NET.CREATE_PATH_LINK_TABLE procedures.
These tables contain columns with predefined names, and you must not change any of the predefined column names; however, you can add columns to the tables by using the ALTER TABLE statement with the ADD COLUMN clause. For example, although each link and path table is created with a single COST column, you can create additional columns and associate them with other comparable attributes. Thus, to assign a driving time, scenic appeal rating, and a danger rating to each link, you could use the COST column for driving time, add columns for SCENIC_APPEAL and DANGER to the link table, and populate all three columns with values to be interpreted by applications.
The following considerations apply to schema, table, and column names that are stored in any Oracle Spatial metadata views. For example, these considerations apply to the names of node, link, path, and path-link tables, and to the names of any columns in these tables that are stored in the network metadata views described in Section 5.9.
The name must contain only letters, numbers, and underscores. For example, the name cannot contain a space ( ), an apostrophe ('
), a quotation mark ("
), or a comma (,
).
All letters in the names are converted to uppercase before the names are stored in metadata views or before the tables are accessed. This conversion also applies to any schema name specified with the table name.
Each network has a node table that can contain the columns described in Table 5-1. (The specific columns depend on the network type and whether the network is hierarchical or not.)

Each row in the path-link table uniquely identifies a link within a path in a network; that is, each combination of PATH_ID, LINK_ID, and SEQ_NO values must be unique within the network. The order of rows in the path-link table is not significant. Each path-link table contains the columns described in Table 5-4.

There is a set of network metadata views for each schema (user): xxx_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA, where xxx can be USER or ALL. These views are created by Spatial.
The following views contain information about networks:
USER_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA contains information about all networks owned by the user.
ALL_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA contains information about all networks on which the user has SELECT permission.
If you create a network using one of the CREATE_<network-type>_NETWORK procedures, the information in these views is automatically updated to reflect the new network; otherwise, you must insert information about the network into the USER_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA view.
The USER_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA and ALL_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA views contain the same columns, as shown Table 5-5, except that the USER_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA view does not contain the OWNER column. (The columns are listed in their order in the view definition.)

The Oracle Spatial network data model includes two client application programming interfaces (APIs): a PL/SQL interface provided by the SDO_NET and SDO_NET_MEM packages and a Java interface. Both interfaces let you create and update network data, and perform network analysis. It is recommended that you use only PL/SQL or SQL to populate network tables and to create indexes, and that you use either PL/SQL or Java for application development.
The following performance considerations apply to the PL/SQL and Java APIs:
If you plan to analyze or edit only nonspatial aspects of a spatial network, you can get better performance by setting the NETWORK_CATEGORY column value to LOGICAL
in the USER_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA view (described in Section 5.9.1) before performing the analysis or editing, and then changing the value back to SPATIAL
afterward.
For example, you could use this technique when finding the shortest path between two nodes, because the shortest-path computation considers cost values. However, you could not use this technique when setting the spatial geometry object or the end measure value for a link.
If you plan to modify any network objects (that is, if you plan to perform only network analysis operations or to retrieve network information), you can get better performance by creating the network memory object as read-only (that is, by specifying that updates are not allowed).
The SDO_NET package provides subprograms for creating, accessing, and managing networks on a database server. The SDO_NET_MEM package, which implements capabilities available through the Java API, provides subprograms for editing network objects and performing network analysis using a cache object called a network memory object. Example 5-4 in Section 5.11 shows the use of SDO_NET functions and procedures. Section 5.7 explains how to use a network memory object, and it contains Example 5-1, which uses SDO_NET_MEM functions and procedures.
The SDO_NET subprograms can be grouped into the following logical categories:
Creating networks:
Copying and deleting networks:
Creating network tables:
Validating network objects:
Retrieving information (getting information about the network, checking for a characteristic):
For reference information about each SDO_NET function and procedure, see Chapter 6.
The SDO_NET_MEM subprograms are grouped according to their associated object-related class in the oracle.spatial.network interface or class. You must specify a prefix after SDO_NET_MEM for each program, depending on its associated class (for example, SDO_NET_MEM.NETWORK_MANAGER.CREATE_LOGICAL_NETWORK, SDO_NET_MEM.NETWORK.ADD_NODE, and SDO_NET_MEM.NODE.GET_COST).
Note:
Although this manual refers to "the SDO_NET_MEM package," the subprograms are actually implemented as methods of several object types. Thus, they are not listed by the statementDESCRIBE SDO_NET_MEM
.The SDO_NET_MEM subprogram groupings are as follows:
SDO_NET_MEM.NETWORK_MANAGER subprograms are related to the oracle.spatial.network.NetworkManager
Java class. They enable you to create and drop network memory objects and to perform network analysis.
SDO_NET_MEM.NETWORK subprograms are related to the oracle.spatial.network.Network
Java interface. They enable you to add and delete nodes, links, and paths.
SDO_NET_MEM.NODE subprograms are related to the oracle.spatial.network.Node
Java interface. They enable you to get and set attributes for nodes.
SDO_NET_MEM.LINK subprograms are related to the oracle.spatial.network.Link
Java interface. They enable you to get and set attributes for links.
SDO_NET_MEM.PATH subprograms are related to the oracle.spatial.network.Path
Java interface. They enable you to get and set attributes for paths.
The associations between SDO_NET_MEM subprograms and methods of the Java API are not necessarily exact. In some cases, a PL/SQL subprogram may combine operations and options from several methods. In addition, some Java methods do not have PL/SQL counterparts. Thus, the Usage Notes for subprograms state only that the function or procedure is analogous to a specific Java method, to indicate a logical relationship between the two. For detailed information about a specific Java method and others that may be related, see the Javadoc-generated API documentation (briefly explained in Section 5.10.2).
For reference information about each SDO_NET_MEM function and procedure, see Chapter 7.

: interface for a multiple-dimension point
MBR
: interface for a multiple-dimension minimum bounding rectangle

Figure 5-3 is a Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagram that shows the relationship between the main classes and interfaces.
Figure 5-3 Java Classes and Interfaces for Network Data Model
Section 5.10.2.3 lists the major interfaces and their methods. For detailed reference information about the network data model classes, see the Javadoc-generated API documentation: open index.html
in a directory that includes the path sdonm/doc/javadoc
.
You can use the Java API to perform network metadata and data management operations such as the following:
Insert, delete, and modify node and link data
Load a network from a database
Store a network in a database
Store network metadata in a database
Modify network metadata attributes
You can use the oracle.spatial.network.NetworkManager
class to perform network analysis operations such as the following:
Shortest path (for directed and undirected networks): typical transitive closure problems in graph theory. Given a start and an end node, find the shortest path.
Minimum cost spanning tree (for undirected networks): Given an undirected graph, find the minimum cost tree that connects all nodes.
Reachability: Given a node, find all nodes that can reach that node, or find all nodes that can be reached by that node.
Within-cost analysis (for directed and undirected networks): Given a target node and a cost, find all nodes that can be reached by the target node within the given cost.
Nearest-neighbors analysis (for directed and undirected networks): Given a target node and number of neighbors, find the neighbor nodes and their costs to go to the given target node.
All paths between two nodes: Given two nodes, find all possible paths between them.
"Traveling salesman problem" (TSP) analysis: Given a set of nodes, find the most efficient (lowest-cost or shortest distance) path that visits all nodes, and optionally require that the start and end nodes be the same.

This section presents simplified examples that use the network data model PL/SQL API. It includes the following sections:
The examples refer to concepts that are explained in this chapter, and they use functions and procedures documented in Chapter 6.
This section presents an example of a very simple spatial (SDO, not LRS) network that contains three nodes and a link between each node. The network is illustrated in Figure 5-4.
As shown in Figure 5-4, node N1
is at point 1,1, node N2
is at point 15,1, and node N3
is at point 9,4. Link L1
is a straight line connecting nodes N1
and N2
, link L2
is a straight line connecting nodes N2
and N3
, and link L3
is a straight line connecting nodes N3
and N1
. There are no other nodes or shape points on any of the links.
Example 5-2 does the following:
In a call to the SDO_NET.CREATE_SDO_NETWORK procedure, creates the SDO_NET1
directed network; creates the SDO_NET1_NODE$, SDO_NET1_LINK$, SDO_NET1_PATH$, and SDO_NET1_PLINK$ tables; and updates the xxx_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA views. All geometry columns are named GEOMETRY. Both the node and link tables contain a cost column named COST.
Populates the node, link, path, and path-link tables. It inserts three rows into the node table, three rows into the link table, two rows into the path table, and four rows into the path-link table.
Updates the Oracle Spatial metadata, and creates spatial indexes on the GEOMETRY columns of the node and link tables. (These actions are not specifically related to network management, but that are necessary if applications are to benefit from spatial indexing on these geometry columns.)
Example 5-2 does not show the use of many SDO_NET functions and procedures; these are included in Example 5-4 in Section 5.11.3.

This section presents an example of a very simple logical network that contains three nodes and a link between the nodes. The network is illustrated in Figure 5-5.
As shown in Figure 5-5, link L1
is a straight line connecting nodes N1
and N2
, link L2
is a straight line connecting nodes N2
and N3
, and link L3
is a straight line connecting nodes N3
and N1
. There are no other nodes on any of the links.
Example 5-3 calls the SDO_NET.CREATE_LOGICAL_NETWORK procedure, which does the following: creates the LOG_NET1
directed network; creates the LOG_NET1_NODE$, LOG_NET1_LINK$, LOG_NET1_PATH$, and LOG_NET1_PLINK$ tables; and updates the xxx_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA views. Both the node and link tables contain a cost column named COST. (Because this is a logical network, there are no geometry columns.) The example also populates the node and link tables.
Example 5-3 does not show the use of many SDO_NET functions and procedures; these are included in the logical hierarchical network example (Example 5-5) in Section 5.11.4.

This section presents an example of a spatial (LRS) network that uses the roads (routes) illustrated in Figure 5-6. Each road is built from individual line segments (associated with links) taken from one or more road segment geometries, which are also shown in the figure.
Figure 5-6 Roads and Road Segments for Spatial (LRS) Network Example
As shown in Figure 5-6:
Route1
starts at point 2,2 and ends at point 5,14. It has the following nodes: N1
, N2
, N3
, N4
, N5
, N6
, and N7
. It has the following links: R1L1
, R1L2
, R1L3
, R1L4
, R1L5
, and R1L6
.
Route2
starts at point 8,4 and ends at point 8,13. It has the following nodes: N3
, N6
, and N8
. It has the following links: R2L1
and R2L2
.
Route3
starts at point 12,10 and ends at point 5,14. It has the following nodes: N5
, N8
, and N7
. It has the following links: R3L1
and R3L2
.
The four road segment geometries are shown individually on the right side of the figure. (The points on each segment are labeled with their associated node names, to clarify how each segment geometry fits into the illustration on the left side.)
Example 5-4 does the following:
Creates a table to hold the road segment geometries.
Inserts four road segment geometries into the table.
Inserts the spatial metadata into the USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view.
Creates a spatial index on the geometry column in the ROAD_SEGMENTS table.
Creates and populates the node table.
Creates and populates the link table.
Creates and populates the path table and path-link table, for possible future use. (Before an application can use paths, you must populate these two tables.)
Inserts network metadata into the USER_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA view.
Uses various SDO_NET and SDO_NET_MEM functions and procedures.

This section presents an example of a logical network that contains the nodes and links illustrated in Figure 5-7. Because it is a logical network, there are no spatial geometries associated with it. (Figure 5-7 is essentially the same as Figure 5-2 in Section 5.5, but with the nodes and links labeled.)
Figure 5-7 Nodes and Links for Logical Network Example
As shown in Figure 5-7:
The network is hierarchical, with two levels. The top level (level 2) consists of two nodes (HN1
and HN2
) and one link (HN1HN2
) that links these nodes. The remaining nodes and links are in the bottom level (level 1) of the hierarchy.
Each node in level 1 is a child node of one of the nodes in level 2. Node HN1
has the following child nodes: N1
, N2
, N3
, N4
, N5
, and N6
. Node HN2
has the following child nodes: N7
, N8
, N9
, N10
, N11
, N12
, N13
, and N14
.
Two links (N5N8
and N6N7
) in level 1 are child links of the link HN1HN2
in level 2.
Example 5-5 does the following:
Creates and populates the node table.
Creates and populates the link table.
Creates and populates the path table and path-link table, for possible future use. (Before an application can use paths, you must populate these two tables.)
Inserts network metadata into the USER_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA view.
Uses various SDO_NET functions and procedures.
Uses SDO_NET_MEM functions and procedures for analysis and editing.

Oracle Spatial provides several network data model demo files that you can use to reinforce your learning and to create models for coding certain operations. Some of these files are for the Network Editor, an unsupported tool that enables you to visualize and edit network data. (The Network Editor interface is shown in Figure 5-1 in Section 5.1.) If you installed the demo files from the Companion CD, those related to the network data model are under the following directory:
$ORACLE_HOME/md/demos/network
The files for the Network Editor are in the following directory:
$ORACLE_HOME/md/demos/network/editor
Read the README.txt
file in that directory for information about this tool. Sample data for the network data model is under the following directory:
$ORACLE_HOME/md/demos/network/editor_download_kit
For example, New York City sample network data is in the following directory:
$ORACLE_HOME/md/demos/network/editor_download_kit/nyc_sample_data
Read the data_load_instructions.txt
file in that directory for information about loading the New York City sample network data into the database.
A README.txt
file supplements the information in the following manuals: Oracle Spatial User's Guide and Reference, Oracle Spatial GeoRaster, and Oracle Spatial Topology and Network Data Models (this manual). This file is located at:
