Hi experts,
I am learning geospatial in SAP HANA these days. I am using SAP HANA SPS08 rev.80. I succeeded to create the following two tables.
CREATE COLUMN TABLE GEO_POINT (
POINT ST_POINT
);
CREATE COLUMN TABLE GEO_GEOM (
SHAPE ST_GEOMETRY
);
But I failed to create tables with other geospatial data types such as ST_MULTIPOINT, ST_LINESTRING, ST_POLYGON, etc. The error is always the following.
However, according to the SAP HANA spatial reference, the following data types are supported. I've not found any content which says only ST_POINT and ST_GEOMETRY can be used to create tables.
Although, I can always use ST_GEOMETRY as the data type and define the actual type when I insert/import data, I really want to know if it is the truth or there is something I missed?
Best regards,
Wenjun
