Environment: DB Version:9.5.15 postgis: Table contain GIS data. I have a table with GIS data, its around 300MB and 2Lacks+ records. I want to export all the records to the CSV file. I can able to export the table data into a CSV file, but the exported CSV file size around 162MB. While I am trying to opening the excel it is taking a long time and also while applying vlookup excel is getting hang. I am using below command : \copy cities TO '/var/lib/pgsql/cities.csv' (DELIMITER ',', FORMAT 'csv', HEADER) I am trying to achieve the following : 1. The exported CSV file should have within 10MB. 2. The excel file should open quickly and able to perform vlookups without any problems(like hang). Could you please provide suggestions on below queries: 1. what I am trying to achieve, is the right assumption?. 2. Can we use this command to use for the above use case?. 3. Is there any tool/extension available for the above use case.? Your inputs are highly appreciated. Regards, Postgadm.
