If you wanted to plot them on a map, you can get their latitude and longitude, too. WHERE "Country" IS "Iceland" Volcano Name Get a list of all the volcanoes in Iceland. There are 160 volcanoes whose name begins with ‘S’, but only one that begins with ‘X’ (Xianjindo in North Korea). This list is trimmed to give just the first example for each letter of the alphabet. That’s a big spreadsheet to manipulate by hand.
The database contains information on 1555 volcanoes. Get an A-Z list of all the volcanoes in the world. If so, there are instructions for getting started at the end. The commands may look complicated at first, but hopefully you can see where the advantages in a real database lie. Querying the list can generate a wealth of interesting (and less-interesting) volcano facts. It lists locations and recent eruptions of over 1,500 active volcanoes. This example uses the Smithsonian Institute’s Global Volcanism Program catalogue of volcanoes, which can be downloaded as a csv file from their website, as the database. Once the data are imported, typically from a comma separated value ( csv) file, it simply provides an interface so that we can ask questions using Structured Query Language (SQL). It has none of the overly-complex wrappings of MS Access or LibreOffice Base and doesn’t need a server like MySQL or Oracle. These can also be read by other software e.g. Firefox) use to store your bookmarks and history. It uses an SQLite database, which is what many browsers (e.g.
This post aims to show how using a real database makes this easier. They are convenient places to enter and store data, but not to get it out again. Even so, spreadsheets are commonly used as such. Tested with LO 6.4 and also 7.1.Excel is not a database. (Just written from memory, and as a I use OpenShell my Win10 is Visualy altered… I usually created my sqlite-databases by script, on the command-line, so i don’t experienced any obstacles on table creation in LibreOffice. Click on forms / report, then back to tables an the tables should be there (obviously only if you connected to a populated table). Sometimes you don’t see the available tables directly. In the next window you select the odbc-connection you defined earlier (or can create further connections). From the options scroll down to sqlite3 and select this type. Now you open LibreOffice, and select New → Database and then connect to an existing database. One hint: If you are in an account without admin-privileges you can only create local connection/for the current user only. Just browse for the file and adapt the name afterwards. In the odbc-connection manager I can define named conections to the sqlite-databases. My method is using the following site to download the odbc-driver: SQLite ODBC DriverĪfter installing the driver I type ODBC in the search box of Win10-Menu and wait what is coming up. What is the preferred method or considerations for connecting Base to Sqlite in Win10 since this release?
