SDO_CS.CONVERT_NADCON_TO

Format

SDO_CS.CONVERT_NADCON_TO_XML(
     laa_clob  IN CLOB, 
     loa_clob  IN CLOB, 
     xml_grid  OUT XMLTYPE );

Description

Converts a NADCON (North American Datum Conversion) grid in ASCII format to an Oracle Spatial XML representation.

Parameters

laa_clob: Latitude values of the NADCON grid in a CLOB object.
loa_clob: Longitude values of the NADCON grid in a CLOB object.
xml_grid: Output XML document containing the Oracle Spatial XML representation of the NADCON grid.

Usage Notes

To convert an Oracle Spatial XML representation to a NADCON grid, use the SDO_CS.CONVERT_XML_TO_NADCON procedure.

Examples

The following example converts a NADCON grid in ASCII format to an Oracle Spatial XML representation, converts the resulting XML representation back to a NADCON ASCII representation, and displays the resulting ASCII representation. (Only part of the output is shown.)
