> Calcite implements support for spatial types (geometry, point, etc.) and 
> spatial functions (ST_), and it can connect to PostGIS via a JdbcSchema. 
> However, the Postgresql dialect does not currently handle spatial types and 
> functions. As a result, Calcite tries to execute the spatial functions at the 
> level of the JVM instead of pushing them down to postgis.
> As a result, the following query gets executed, but the type of the geom 
> column is incorrect:
> SELECT id, geom FROM public.spatial_table
> The following query fails with a ClassCastException as Calcite tries to use 
> the java implementation of the ST_SRID function:
> SELECT id, ST_SRID(geom) FROM public.spatial_table
> java.lang.ClassCastException: class org.postgresql.util.PGobject cannot be 
> cast to class org.locationtech.jts.geom.Geometry 
> (org.postgresql.util.PGobject and org.locationtech.jts.geom.Geometry are in 
> unnamed module of loader 'app')
> In my current understanding, this issue could be addressed with a new 
> PostgisSqlDialect that extends PostgresqlSqlDialect and adds support for 
> spatial types and functions. Here is a tentative roadmap:
> - Add all the spatial functions to the SqlKind class
> - Create a PostgisSqlDialect class that extends PostgresqlSqlDialect
> - Add support for the spatial types (geometry) by overriding the getCastSpec 
> method of the SqlDialect class
> - Add support for the spatial functions by overriding the supportsFunction 
> method of the SqlDialect class
> - Add support for the spatial aggregate functions by overriding the 
> supportsAggregateFunction method of the SqlDialect class
