Visualize GeoRaster Data on a Map

Oracle Spatial Studio allows you to visualize GeoRaster data stored in spatial GeoRaster type in Oracle Database. Geo-referenced raster data, including satellite imagery, aerial photos from drones, and gridded data, is very useful for mapping applications. It can be directly analyzed, or layered with vector data as a background map for additional context. See Spatial GeoRaster Developer’s Guide for more information on GeoRaster data.

You can visualize georaster data on a map using the following steps.

The instructions assume that the GeoRaster dataset is already added to the project in the Active Project page. To create a GeoRaster dataset, see Create a GeoRaster Dataset for more information.

1. Click the Visualizations tab on the left pane in the Active Project page.

   This lists the various visualization options.

2. Click and drag Map from the list to the visualization window on the right to create a map visualization.

   A default base map is displayed with no data visualization layers.

3. Click the Data tab on the left pane in the Active Project page.

   This lists all the Datasets that are loaded for the project.

4. Click and drag the desired GeoRaster dataset from the list to the map view on the right.

   A GeoRaster layer is created on the map as shown:

   Tip: You can enhance your visual display by modifying your Layer Settings using the Style tab and Raster tab.

   Spatial Studio also supports visualization of 3D terrains on a map using GeoRaster Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data. See Apply Style for a GeoRaster Layer for more information.
