Hello, I have a need to design and develop an application which handles a wide variety of possible variations for a database schema. I am looking into a number of options including popular NoSQL databases. I do keep coming back to PostgreSQL and PostGIS since I need to deal with geometries in a more complex manner than either MongoDB or CouchDB Geospatial Indexing offer.
With that said, I have been looking into the new capabilities available with PostgreSQL HStore module<https://postgres.heroku.com/blog/past/2012/3/14/introducing_keyvalue_data_storage_in_heroku_postgres/> as a possible alternative to be able to store geometries with PostGIS and tie additional key/value pairs in a hstore data type column. - Can anyone comment on successful or unsuccessful attempts to implement such a technology approach integrating PostGIS with HStore? - How would one extract data out in such a manner (I suspect a custom program would need to be run)? I do realize HStore is very new on the scene, but curious if this environment is something that will even work with PostGIS. Thanks! Cheers, Blair
