DB2GSE.ST_GEOCODING catalog view

Use query the DB2GSE.ST_GEOCODING and DB2GSE.ST_GEOCODING_PARAMETERS catalog views to obtain information about the particulars settings for geocoding operations. This information is automatically recorded when you set up geocoding operations.

The DB2GSE.ST_GEOCODING catalog view, which is described in Table 1, contains particulars of all settings; for example, the number of records that a geocoder is to process before each commit.

The DB2GSE.ST_GEOCODING_PARAMETERS catalog view contains particulars that are specific to each geocoder. For example, the minimum degree to which addresses given as input and actual addresses must match in order for the geocoder to geocode the input. This minimum requirement, called the minimum match score, is recorded in the DB2GSE.ST_GEOCODING_PARAMETERS catalog view.

MODE VARCHAR(128) No Mode for the geocoding process:
BATCH
Only batch geocoding is enabled.
AUTO
Automatic geocoding is set up and activated.
INVALID
An inconsistency in the spatial catalog tables was detected; the geocoding entry is invalid.
SOURCE_COLUMNS VARCHAR(10000) Yes Names of table columns set up for automatic geocoding. Whenever these columns are updated, a trigger prompts the geocoder to geocode the updated data.
