Well GIS Day is just about over and Post GIS day is slowly arriving around
the world.
 
To celebrate this new day, we have prepared some Post GIS playing cards.

That would be awesome. I guess the script will have problems reading the
t-dimension, but i will try it later today.
As for the scientific community, reading NetCDF would be a huge
improvement. At least for anyone working with climatology, oceanography etc.

Yes, it should be possible.
I don't say it will work straight away, perhaps raster2pgsql.py needs
to be patched.
In theory, however, whatever GDAL can consume, raster2pgsql.py can
consume it too.

Hi,

The netCDF is read using scipy.io.netcdf and each coordinate pair and
"pixel" value is inserted into a table.
Then the user can add a geometry column and update it according to
coordinate pair.
I would love to be able to read netcdf using the raster2pgsql.py, but i am
not sure if that will be implemented though.

Hi Bob,

I wrote a short blog post about it here:
http://www.gisintersect.com/?p=186

It is a simple Scipy.io.NetCDF python script that eventually outputs to
PostGIS using the psycopg2 python module.

Feel free to comment about improvements!
