The spatial database management system that supports the real-time processing for spatial data is emerging with the Location-based Services(LBS) that uses the location information as the key information in ubiquitous environment. Kairos Spatial is a spatial database management system which is based on the main-memory database technology. It supports both relational data model and spatial data model in the forms of the engine-level integration and supports an efficient spatial data management and real-time spatial data processing in GIS applications handling large amounts of spatial data. Using Kairos Spatial as the DBMS for the spatial data management will be able to get effect reducing the development time and improving the performance of spatial data processing.
In this paper, we present the introduction to spatial DBMS technology, Spatial DBMS features and functionality, short introduction to a Main memory-based Spatial DBMS and its case study.
