What is a Geodatabase?
• A spatial and attribute data
container container – Relational database
management system (RDBMS)
– Maintains data integrity
– Apply Rules and Behavior
• Native data format for ArcGIS
Relational Database - A method of structuring data as collections of tables that are logically associated to each
other by shared attributes. Any data element can be found in a
relation by knowing the name of the table, the attribute (column)
name, and the value of the primary key.

2 Types of Geodatabase
• Personal GeodatabasePersonal Geodatabase– Stand alone PC, MS Access database– Supports individual and small groups on
moderate size datasets
• Enterprise GeodatabaseEnterprise Geodatabase– Exists on underlying RDBMS through Spatial
Database Engine (SDE) e.g. SQL Server– Usually runs on a dedicated server– Supports many users and massive datasets– Supports raster datasets

• Property of a feature class or feature dataset• Components
– Coordinate system– Coordinate domain
• Permanent after definition is saved– Warning: it may look like you changed the coordinate
system, but you can’t and don’t try. It messes things up!
• See next slide for more information

Storing Feature Coordinates
Two important considerations when storing
feature coordinates in a Geodatabase:
1. All data is stored as positive, 32-bit integers (Spatial Domain)
2. All data must maintain a Coordinate Precision.
![Page 28: WFM 6202: Remote Sensing and GIS in Water Management Akm Saiful Islam [Part-B: Geographic Information System (GIS)] Lecture-4(b): Geo-Database December,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062312/5517975b5503460e6e8b5ae8/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
WFM 6202: Remote Sensing and GIS in Water Management © Dr. Akm Saiful IslamInstitute of Water and Flood Management (IWFM) , Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET)
Coordinate Precision
• The geodatabase converts all coordinates into 32-bit Storage Units.
• Storage Units are the smallest measurable unit that can be stored in a Geodatabase.
• Precision is used to convert coordinate system units into storage units.
![Page 29: WFM 6202: Remote Sensing and GIS in Water Management Akm Saiful Islam [Part-B: Geographic Information System (GIS)] Lecture-4(b): Geo-Database December,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062312/5517975b5503460e6e8b5ae8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Example: Coordinate Precision

• Precision is a Scale Factor– Used to preserve decimal places before
rounding– Larger precision preserves more digits

Data Storage and Backup
• Shared data in a service center must be on the f: drive.• Personal data can be stored on the c: drive or h: drive.
– c: drive is notis not routinely backed up.– h: drive should contain important working files
that can be routinely backed up.• Local Geodata Administrators are responsible for
ensuring backups are routinely being made of specific directories.– Large, easily replaced datasets should not be
routinely backed up because they can be obtained again.
– Files and directories that change regularly should be routinely backed up.

Managing Your GDB
• ArcCatalog is your main tool to manage the schema– Construction of component parts– Organization of those parts– Properties for the parts
• Many capabilities are available– Some are not on the default GUI

Reading Schemas
Structural
Logical
Most data access technologies provide a way for you to query the schema of a database, and obtain information about the tables, stored procedures, data types, users, and other content of a database.

Creating Topology
1. Rules– Land use boundaries overlap parcel boundaries– Manholes overlap sanitary line endpoints
2. Cluster Tolerance– Min distance where vertices within tolerance are
snapped
3. Ranks– Control what features move during validating
• Surveyed points will not move (snap) during the validation process

Tips
• Projecting data– Must create a new feature class
• PGDB is 2 GB max
• Read-only on a PGDB will restrict some analyses, such as Select by Location
• Use compact to clean up temporary files
• All table names need to be unique
