I am doing research on spatial data and how it can be used in open source systems like mySQL.
Can someone give me some outline of problems in handling spatial data in mySQL.
If you are specifically looking for problems you might find the following interesting: http://postgis.refractions.net/pipermail/postgis-users/2003-June/002651.html
It is written by somebody from the PostGIS project so there might be some bias. But since PostgreSQL and PostGIS are both Open Source too, there is nothing to stop you from doing your own tests: http://postgis.refractions.net/
