Oracle
Location Services
 

Welcome to Oracle Spatial and Graph eLocation

Oracle Spatial eLocation is a set of web based location aware services (Location-based Services). It enables applications to use location as a new dimension in managing their business processes thereby enriching end user experience.

Oracle Spatial eLocation consists of a set of J2EE applications that take advantage of the location capability provided by Oracle 12c Locator and Spatial. All data is stored inside an Oracle Spatial database.

Oracle Spatial eLocation provides three basic types of services:

1. Geocoding service takes user input address (or Point Of Interest name -POI name-) and converts it to a latitude/longitude location.

2. Mapping service renders map image with user specified map parameters.

3. Routing (Driving Directions) service takes two street addresses (or multiple addresses in the case of batch routing) and return the driving directions based on street network analysis.



Cannot log into the administration page?


Here is a hint:

You must have created a security user in the instance where eLocation is running, and mapped the security user to the eLocation's built-in security role "lbs_admin_role". Once you have completed these tasks through the Enterprise Manager website, you can then use that security user's name and password to log in as eLocation administrator.
