Re: Hana SPS07 and spatial data

Hi Aron,

OK I started getting strange SRID=0 results, but perhaps due to long day and user error.

Starting from scratch, I can confirm the exact following SQL:

Example 1

drop table SpatialLocations;

CREATE COLUMN TABLE SpatialLocations(id integer, location ST_POINT(4326));

INSERT INTO SpatialLocations VALUES(1, new ST_POINT('POINT(58.641759 -3.068672)',4326));

INSERT INTO SpatialLocations VALUES(2, new ST_POINT('POINT(50.05935 -5.708054)',4326));

SELECT location.ST_AsEWKT() FROM SpatialLocations;

Gives:

Example 2

Note change to exclude SRID 4326 from INSERT of points:

drop table SpatialLocations;

CREATE COLUMN TABLE SpatialLocations(id integer, location ST_POINT(4326));

INSERT INTO SpatialLocations VALUES(1, new ST_POINT(58.641759, -3.068672));

INSERT INTO SpatialLocations VALUES(2, new ST_POINT(50.05935, -5.708054));

SELECT location.ST_AsEWKT() FROM SpatialLocations;

Gives:

Which indicates that provided the column is created with associated SRID this "sticks".
