I'm not sure how it was exported from postgis- the person who gave me the
file wasn't the one who downloaded it unfortunately.
The file is a line file of roads. The files main columns are road ID
numbers (type integer) and the geometry column (type geometry, long strong
of letters and numbers). Only the IT admins where I am have the postgis
load/import tools in the pgadmin/sql interface. The rest of us can download
from sql and create new tables from other sql databases, but not create a
new table from a csv file.
