Paul,
and I have a hard time reconciling that to the real use-case needs of TIN-in-database (really large, region-spanning, billion-face TINs).
Well, why want to store such kind of TIN structure into a database ? :) If you refer to an MNT, such geometry don't really have properties, so IMHO it doesn't make sense to use a spatial database to deal with them. On the other hand, you could use TIN structure (or PolyhedralSurface) with a lot of 'quite small' 3D features, in City modeling applications for instance. -- Olivier _______________________________________________ postgis-users mailing list [email protected] http://postgis.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/postgis-users
