Abstract

In this chapter, we will give you a brief overview of Azure's SQL Database and how it can be used to host your geospatial data. We will then present a sample application that takes the geospatial earthquake data from http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/ and stores it on the SQL Database.
