Note from the Geomajas team: When working with databases, it is recommended to always use this plug-in!
This plug-in provides a vector layer implementation that makes use of Hibernate Spatial, which is a GIS extension of the Hibernate Object Relational Mapping (ORM) technology.
This plug-in is essential in streamlining Geomajas with the familiar domain modelling practices of mainstream Java programmers. Using this layer, it is possible to define complex attribute relations, including many-to-one and one-to-many associations.
Supported databases:
PostGIS
Oracle Spatial
Microsoft SQL Server
MySQL
