Migrating spatial data between databases
First Claim
1. A method for migrating spatial data between databases, comprising:
- accessing a first network topology associated with a first landbase map and a second network topology associated with a second landbase map to automatically map identical nodes and segments therebetween;
identifying spatial relationships between at least one facilities object and landbase objects associated with the first network topology;
automatically populating the second landbase map with the facilities object according to the identified spatial relationships applied against the second network topology.

Abstract
A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for migrating facilities spatial data between databases that maintains the positional accuracy of the facilities spatial data in a target database. A first network topology associated with a first landbase map and a second network topology associated with a second landbase map are built using landbase objects and accessed to automatically map identical nodes and segments therebetween, thus creating a correspondence matrix. Spatial relationships between at least one facilities object and landbase objects associated with the first network topology are identified and recorded. Using the correspondence matrix and the explicitly recorded relationships, the second landbase map is automatically populated with the facilities object according to the identified spatial relationships applied against the second network topology. The positional accuracy of the facilities spatial data in relation to the second landbase map is maintained.
