Following on from the reply by strk (thanks!!) I'm still working through how to use topologies.
I have a script which creates a topology, adds 5 linestrings looking like: | | | --------------- | | | --------------- | | | validates the result and then Polygonizes it, creating two faces. I'm using the SVN docs ( http://www.postgis.org/documentation/manual-svn/Topology.html ) as my reference, as this is the best I have found so far. What I want this script to do is run a query listing/describing the faces that have been created, then extract them as polygon geometries into a Postgis geometry column to be used as conventional polygons, but I can see no way in the docs of accomplishing this. Once I get the script able to complete this operation I figure I should have a much better understanding of how Postgis topology works, & will stick it on the wiki as a working example. I'll also insert more commands to illustrate other operations, as I learn this stuff. Any suggestions as to how to accomplish these next steps? Thanks, Brent Wood
