20. OGC ® Table Joining Service (TJS) Overview Tabular data to be exchanged via TJS must include a geographic identifier -- a spatial feature found in a separate geospatial data set. In order to join tabular data to another dataset, both datasets must contain the same geographic identifier (i.e. key field). An example of such tabular data is a collection of population counts by city. The table includes the city name, but does not include any other geographic identifier. The city names can be used to join the population data to a layer in a GIS that contains the spatial coordinates for each city, in order to map the information or perform some sort of geospatial analysis. © 2012 Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc.20

21. OGC ® Table Joining Service (TJS) Benefits Allows organizations to house their enterprise data on systems that are optimized for the management of that data, and yet to take advantage of geospatial analysis. Allows enterprise data to be maintained closest to source, and yet allows the latest data to be obtained when analysis is being performed, regardless of whether or not the geospatial system can make a direct connection to the enterprise data management system. Exposing the data through a TJS allows the enterprise data managers to change their underlying database design and security safeguards without compromising access to data that should be accessible by other systems. In effect, TJS supports both distributed data management, as well as the distributed processing of geospatial data. © 2012 Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc.21
