Writer Overview

The Ingres Spatial writer stores both geometry and attributes into an Ingres database.

Note: Attribute case is not preserved, and all names are lowercase.

The Ingres Spatial writer provides the following capabilities:

  • Transaction Support: The Ingres Spatial writer provides transaction support that eases the data loading process. Occasionally, a data load operation terminates prematurely due to data difficulties. The transaction support provides a mechanism for reloading corrected data without data loss or duplication.
  • Bulk Loading: By default, the Ingres writer uses a bulk loading technique to ensure speedy data loading.
