In summary, the intersection is much slower than one in Geo<strong>Raster</strong> <strong>for</strong> two reasons:<br />
• To intersect vector and raster data, firstly raster has to be polygonized, then the result is the<br />
intersection between these polygons with vector data. In this process, polygonizing is a complex<br />
operation.<br />
• In Oracle, the raster data is sampled using rectangular windows. So the intersection is only<br />
per<strong>for</strong>med between these MBRs with vector data while the vector data intersected by the raster<br />
data in <strong>PostGIS</strong> <strong>Raster</strong> are in some <strong>for</strong>ms [15].<br />
