There are a wide variety of Postgres replication solutions, and I
would like advice on which one would be appropriate to my use case.

* Small (~half dozen) distributed workforce using a file sharing
service, but without access to direct network connection over the
internet
* Database is updated infrequently, when new government agency data
releases replace old data
* Because database is updated infrequently, workforce can come
together for LAN-based replication as needed
* Entire database is on the order of a few GB

Given this, I am considering the super lowtech "replication" solution
of updating "master" and doing a full database drop and restore on the
"slaves". But I would like to know which of the other (real)
replication solutions might work for this use case.

If I follow correctly the layout is?:

                Main database <--- Govt. data
                        |
                        |
                       \ /

                   File share
                        |
                        |
                       \ /

DB       DB        DB       DB       DB        DB

User 1   User 2    User 3   User 4   User 5    User 6



For your simple scenario you might want to look at:
