Do you have any plan to integrate GIS to objectdb like PostgreSQL's PostGIS.
Its not hard to implement with AI in these days...
Like searching Point , Polygon , geojson etc...

Waow , if we can use objectdb like simple fast persistent hashmap we can use uber h3 java for geo.
Its written in C++ :

Also there is wrapper for java use:

That’s a very interesting idea — thank you for bringing it up. While ObjectDB does not currently include native GIS support like PostGIS, we recognize the value that spatial extensions (points, polygons, GeoJSON, etc.) could bring for certain domains. With the growing role of AI and spatial data analysis, exploring how ObjectDB might integrate geospatial queries and data types in the future is certainly worth consideration. At this point, we don’t have specific plans or a timeline to announce, but your suggestion highlights an area that could open up exciting opportunities.
In the meantime, some approaches can be explored within the current ObjectDB and JPA framework: for example, storing custom geometry objects as @Embeddable, and adding additional numeric fields such as bounding boxes or center points with indexes for efficient spatial filtering. While these options don’t provide full spatial indexing like PostGIS, they allow basic geospatial queries and coarse filtering directly within ObjectDB today.
