With the rapid development of spatial database technology, spatial databases have been widely used in many engineering fields and rapidly increase in data capacity. Thus, to mine useful information from large spatial databases turns into a difficult but important task. In this paper, we apply the traditional data mining into spatial database and give a mining model for spatial data based on Campus GIS. Moreover, based on campus GIS, we implement a spatial data mining prototype system that is able to discovery the useful spatial features and patterns in spatial databases. The application in the campus GIS of a university has shown the feasibility and validity of the system.
