Question : Advanced Query (Lat and Lon) - Spatial Operation
Hello,
I am in need of an advanced query that will assist us with a project we are working on.
I will have a table (ROUTE table) containing a list of locations that a gps unit should visit in a single day. These records will have associated lat/lon coordinates.
Lastly, I will have a table (ACTUAL table) containing the actual lat/lon coordinates of a gps unit stored by date and time.
I need to query (I am told Spatial Operations will be necessary) the "ACTUAL" table for any records that are within 1/8 of a mile from ANY of the records in the "ROUTE" table.
If there ARE records that show the GPS unit within 1/8 of a mile I need to show what time it arrived, and if there AREN'T then I need to indicate that the GPS unit failed to arrive at that location.
How can I do this in such a way that it DOESN'T overload the DB and doesn't take forever to retrieve results? Thank you!

The main difference is that I sort of calculated the distance as a field that is returned in the result and your statement uses it for filtering only. If you don't need the distance in the result, your approach is fine :-)
