Re: [postgis-users] Invalid SRID for geography type: ee4
Hi, Geography type supports only EPSG:4326. First load your data as geometry, then change SRS and cast them to geography.

Re: [postgis-users] Invalid SRID for geography type: ee4
You can't load projected coordinates into geography, you'll need to load to geometry, then re-project to 4326 and cast to geography if you really want to use geography (why do you want to if your data is all neatly contained in Belgium and already projected?)
