support fully fledged Spatial SQL capabilities. SQLite is intrinsically simple and lightweight: * a single lightweight library implementing the full SQL engine * standard SQL implementation: almost complete SQL-92 * no complex client/server architecture * a whole database simply corresponds to a single monolithic file (no size limits) * any DB-file can be safely exchanged across different platforms, because the internal architecture is universally portable * no installation, no configuration SpatiaLite is smoothly integrated into SQLite to provide a complete and powerful Spatial DBMS (mostly OGC-SFS compliant). Using SQLite + SpatiaLite you can effectively deploy an alternative open source Spatial DBMS roughly equivalent to PostgreSQL + PostGIS.

SpatiaLite is an open source library intended to extend the SQLite core to

|
* no complex client/server architecture

* any DB-file can be safely exchanged across different platforms, because the
