SpatiaLite: A Spatial Extension to SQLite

SpatiaLite is an birth source library supposed to lengthen the SQLite core to enhance fully fledged Spatial SQL capabilities.


SQLite is intrinsically easy and lightweight-weight:

  • a single light-weight library imposing the plump SQL engine
  • usual SQL implementation: nearly full SQL-92
  • no complex client/server structure
  • a full database simply corresponds to a single monolithic file (no size limits)
  • any DB-file can even simply additionally be safely exchanged across assorted platforms, since the internal structure is universally transportable
  • no set up, no configuration

SpatiaLite is smoothly integrated into SQLite to make a full and highly effective Spatial DBMS (mostly OGC-SFS compliant).


The employ of SQLite + SpatiaLite you may maybe maybe also successfully deploy an quite quite a lot of birth source Spatial DBMS roughly akin to PostgreSQL + PostGIS.

SpatiaLite is licensed below the MPL tri-license terms; you are free to catch the final note-fit license between:
