Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

In everyday life when we asks questions like “Where is the nearest coffee shop” or “How far away is the airport” we are asking questions about geospatial data. Geospatial data is used to represent objects and events that occur on the surface of the earth. Geospatial analytics allows you to not only store geospatial data representing real location in your database, but to also compare and analyze geographic relationships and trends.

Learning Objectives:
This session will introduce the set of new user-defined geospatial data types, scalar functions, and table functions that make up Geospatial Analytics with Watson and provide many real-world examples of how to use them
