Hello everyone,
I was wondering whether postGIS has the option of building a custom data type on top of an existing data type, like a 3d geometry type. In postgreSQL you can build a custom data type on top of an existing one, but I cannot find any examples for postGIS. Could anyone please clarify this issue to me or point me into the right direction. Thanks a mill,
B.

I don't see any reason why you couldn't build a PostgreSQL domain containing geometry objects if you wanted. However I suspect this may confuse applications that read from the geometry_columns table to find tables containing geometries...


ATB,

Mark.
