1Spatial’s Gothic Object Oriented (OO)technology provides advanced spatial database management and persistent topology, bringing unparalleled intelligence to spatial data. We apply this technology to complex spatial database projects and we are migrating valuable Gothic principles and components to the Oracle database and Fusion Middleware environment via our Radius suite of products. 

Features of Gothic:

• Fully customisable OO data models - make your database fit the data, rather than the other way around.
• Define how your objects behave within the database: This allows objects to maintain and validate themselves, persistently maintaining data quality and centralising business rules.
• Highly complex geographic models available concurrently through simple applications to different sets of users, allowing you to use the same data for many different purposes.
• High performance advanced spatial functionality for storage, maintenance, analysis transformation and display.
• Dynamically generate, maintain and analyse topological relationships as the data model is modified, providing high quality data and ultra-fast analysis that is all handled automatically by the data.
• Features will display themselves differently depending on the context, allowing the same data to be used in many situations and reduces the amount of logic that needs to be embedded within applications.
• Handles large or complex datasets
• Long transaction support for multi-user editing and 'what-if' scenarios.

This technology continues to underpin many mission-critical spatial data solutions across the world in National Mapping and Charting Agencies and Defence Organisations.
