Hi,

the topological model of Oracle is a model with Face-Edges-Nodes.

But it don't use the "SDO_Geometry",
but instead it use the other type "SDO_TOPO_Geometry".

so if you load using a SDO_Geometry the lines between two polygons are
duplicated.

If you don't want the duplication you must use SDO_TopoGeometry instead of
SDO_Geometry.

I don't know if a "SDO_Topo_Geometry" is readable as a kind of
"SDO_Geometry".

Regards,
