WKT and Three Dimensional Coordinates?

271872Apr 9 2004 — edited Oct 12 2007

It seems that the WKT support in Oracle Spatial doesn't support 3 dimensional points. Is that true? If so, why not?

Looking at the OGC spec, it appears that it only has allowances for 2 dimensions. But other DBs, like SQLPlus, have extended the spec to support 3 dimensions.

Anyone know why the spec only supports 2D? Anyone know why Oracle only supports 2D?

Thanks,
-Ray
