History

#1 Updated by Tim Sutton over 16 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 Open 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.
