Hi PostGis Community, My Question: Does everyone have a separate PostGis and Postgres db in their server or do people put all their data in the PostGis db?
Background: I have been using Postgres DB since September and just now I need to add GIS support to my application so the obvious thing was to install PostGis. During my PostGis installation a new db (called PostGis) was created. I need to link my goereferenced data to other data in my db before i display it to the user on the map and that is why i need all the data in 1 db. cross-db references are not allowed in Postgres so I am left with 2 options: 1. Copy all my existing data to the PostGis db 2. Copy the whole PostGis db into my existing db. Both these options seem cumbersome and pretty silly so I must be missing something here - please enlighten me. thanks James _______________________________________________ postgis-users mailing list [email protected] http://postgis.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/postgis-users
